1. 1最北的;最北邊的

    Northernmost means north — of a group, the one that sits closest to the North Pole. It is not just northern. A northern town is somewhere in the north; the northernmost town is the one that beats all the others on that measure. You can say the northernmost island, the northernmost point of the country, our northernmost factory. It is a calm, slightly formal word, at home in geography, news, and science. Though actually, people also say most northern, and that is fine in speech; northernmost is the tight one-word shape. There is no everyday word northernest.

組成northern (in or of the north) + -most (furthest in that direction; from Old English -mest / Middle English -most).
