"How can a person so dumb, think he knows everything. He doesn't even understand the most basics of things."
I was talking about someone me and my fried think is really ignorant. I don't know if the sentence is correct, but my question is about the bolded part.
- The most basics of things.
1) Does leaving out 'most' make the sentence wrong? Or does it only deemphasize the sentence? (the basics of things)
2) I know we can say 'basics of ideas/things etc.' I can't think of any other words to use in this structure. (The most important of projects?)
