Usage notes

The superlatives oikein and väärin are rarely appropriate, because right and wrong are often understood as absolutes, and because of the homonymy with much more frequently used adverbs. People tend to circumvent them by saying eniten väärä, lähinnä oikeaa and eniten oikea, choosing another adjective if available (e.g. kiero, oikeanpuoleinen, oikeellinen) or using kaikista as determiner.

Synonyms

(very): hyvin, erittäin, todella

Antonyms

(right: correspondingly to the reality; in the morally right way): väärin
(being correct, corresponding to the reality): väärin
