Wiriest

Superlative adjective · /ˈwaɪərɪɪst/ · the most wiry; the leanest and toughest of a group

Definition
Wiriest is the superlative form of wiry — meaning the most wiry of a set. While wirier says more than one other, wiriest says more than all. The wiriest climber in the group. The wiriest of the terrier breeds. It identifies the single extreme point of lean toughness.
Etymology
From wiry (wire, Old English wīr: metal thread) plus the superlative suffix -est. Because wiry ends in consonant-Y, the Y changes to I before -est, giving wiriest. Same pattern as busiest, happiest, tidiest.
