How else, then, would one verbalize the lower and lowest ranks of one's favorite things? If you listed your favorite things in order as only raindrops on roses

How else, then, would one verbalize the lower and lowest ranks of one's favorite things? If you listed your favorite things in order as only raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, then whiskers on kittens is your least favorite thing. And if you only had one favorite thing, then it, also, would be your least favorite thing.
...unless you're suggesting "least favorite" is an English idiom.
- Dylan16807 4y agoI wouldn't really call it an idiom. The idea is that you can rank everything on the same scale, with one end being most favorite and the other end being least favorite. If you want to say "still among my favorites, but barely", you need to use a different wording.
- aidenn0 4y ago"least favorite" can be used euphemistically to mean "most hated"
