word · lemma: proud

Definition

'Proudest' is the superlative form of 'proud', meaning feeling the greatest amount of pride about something or someone, more than at any other time or compared to others.

Usage & Nuances

"Proudest" is only used for comparisons involving the highest possible pride, often with "moment" ("my proudest moment") or when comparing people. It is formal or neutral—avoid using it for minor achievements. Don't use "most proudest" (that's incorrect), just "proudest".
