1
most important; foremost in mind
Most important in a situation, or the main thing that someone is thinking about.
الگوی کاربرد:
be uppermost in [someone]'s mind / thoughts
اشتباه رایج:
Learners sometimes use "more upper" or "most upper" instead of "uppermost". "Uppermost" already means the most important or the most high, so it does not take "more" or "most" before it. They may also confuse "uppermost" with "upper"; use "uppermost" when you want to stress that something is the single most important, not just higher.
هممعنیها
foremost (Very close in meaning; slightly more formal and common than "uppermost" in this mental/priority sense.)
|
principal (Stresses being the main or primary one, often in more formal or written contexts.)
متضادها
secondary (Suggests something is less important or not the main concern, the opposite of being uppermost in importance.)
