at/in the backest etc..
Hello,
How do we make a comparative sentence using "back, rigt, left, front etc."? For example; are the following sentences possible? What alternatives do we have to denote the degree of prepositions?
a) Jane is sitting at / in the backest (or in the furthest back)
b) Take the frontest one.
c) I want the righest / leftist one etc....(or the furthest right / left )
Thanks
