Did you see that painting at the gallery yesterday?
Yeah, it was surprisingly bold and the nudest one I've ever seen.

Root Explanation
The word 'nudest' is derived from 'nude' (from Latin 'nudus', meaning bare or unclothed) and the superlative suffix '-est' (meaning most). Therefore, 'nudest' refers to the state of being most bare or unclothed.
Memory Tip
Think of 'nude' meaning bare, and when you add '-est', it indicates the most bare — that's how 'nudest' means the most unclothed.
