のなかで~がいちばん~ (Out of ~)

Out of ~, ~ is the best/most ~

JLPT N5
Pattern

Group + のなかで + X + がいちばん + adjective

How it works

To say which one is the most ~ within a group, use のなかで (among) + がいちばん (the most). To ask, use a question word: くだもののなかで何がいちばん好きですか.

Examples

  • くだものの なかで りんごが いちばん 好きです。Of all fruit, I like apples best.
  • クラスの なかで だれが いちばん せが 高いですか。Who is the tallest in the class?
