grammar - When to use "most" or "the most" - English Language & Usage ...
"But what I remembered most is moving a lot" is correct, with or without "the". Although "the most" is the superlative, preferable. Here, "most" is used as an adverb modifying the verb "remember", meaning "to the greatest extent". There may be other examples, where it can mean "extremely" as in the following:"it was most kind of you", "that is ...

meaning - Is "most" equivalent to "a majority of"? - English Language ...
"Most of the children chose cauliflower." Probably means a majority. "Cauliflower was chosen the most." Could be just a plurality. But wow, it's pretty vague. It might be very hard to say without a complete context, and even then could be ambiguous. Note "most" can also be used in a subjective sense. "I hate cauliflower the most."

"Most important" vs "most importantly" - English Language & Usage Stack ...
To cite example 1 ("Most importantly [what is most important is that], Bob is dead") grammatically means that Bob is "importantly dead". Maybe that means Bob is a martyr or that Bob, though dead, has the willpower to be dead in a glorious fashion.

Another way to think about the difference between the subjective/objective pronouns is to revise the sentence to include a personal pronoun and see which form ( he/him or she/her or they/them ) fit.

Comparative and Superlative for little? - English Language & Usage ...
I disagree with most of these answers. "Little" is an absolute - like the word "unique". It cannot be qualified. "Littlest" is a word rather like the phrase "curiouser and curiouser", in that it is a sort of verbal joke. I have never heard littler. As a test try saying "She is more little (littler) than her sister." It sounds ridiculous.

meaning - Is it appropriate to use the word "most" to describe 60% of ...
(E.g., "most cars are Toyotas" could mean "there are more Toyotas than any other brand on the road", even if Toyota is only 20% of the market. [No idea what the actual percentage is.]) The general consensus seems to be that "most" could mean anything from "over 50%" to "nearly 100%", but that's a pretty wide range of definitions.
