I heard a local English teacher commenting on his students' English:
-These are the mistakes that are most to be feared.
In that sentence, I thought if the meaning is 'the mistakes are the most glaring', then MOST should be put behind FEARED, but on second thought maybe the teacher wanted to convey a different meaning; I'm not sure what that meaning was...
Altering the placement of the word most in that sentence does not change the meaning.
@Setanta,
oooo...I thought there would be something different...
Thank you~
