问题: acute的最高级是most acute 还是acutest?

North Korea's nuclear program is "the most acute challenge to stability in northeast Asia," U.S. Secretary of State Hillary Clinton said Friday.
这个句子是CNN新闻里的,acute的最高级是most acute 还是acutest?

解答:

通常一个英语单字如果拥有三个以上的发音,如important,前面会加上most.
acute只有两个读音,所以是acutest.
但,英语文法都很爱变,没有绝对的答案。
