彼は最も美しい花が好きだ。
eng
He likes the most beautiful flower.
fra
Il aime les plus belles fleurs.
The French sentence says "flowers". Should it be unlinked from the Japanese?
CK, you seem to be implying from two posts above that it should be singular in the translations, but then your last post you talk about 最も with a qualifier.
If I'm remembering this correctly, in the JLPT, they say something like "1, 2, 3, 4 の中で,最も良い答えを一つ選んでください。”Doesn't this suggest that it just means "most" or "utmost" without explicitly making it singular?
And anyway, does 最も bind with 美しい or 美しい花? If the former, it wouldn't imply a singular thing, but if it's the latter then maybe it does? I would have assumed the former, myself.
個人的には「最も」と聞いたら単数だと理解します。「最も~の一つ」というのは欧文直訳調です。翻訳調を特に好む人以外は、日常的に使うことは稀だと思います。
