ruggedest
English
Adjective
ruggedest
- superlative form of rugged: most rugged
- 1851, Herman Melville, Moby-Dick
- For, as when the red-cheeked, dancing girls, April and May, trip home to the wintry, misanthropic woods; even the barest, ruggedest, most thunder-cloven old oak will at least send forth some few green sprouts, to welcome such glad-hearted visitants; so Ahab did, in the end, a little respond to the playful allurings of that girlish air.
- 1851, Herman Melville, Moby-Dick
