Questions & Answers about Ese clavado inusual requiere una coordinación de lo más complicada.
Why does complicada end in '-a' when it comes right after lo más? Doesn't lo make it masculine or neuter?
The phrase de lo más is a fixed expression meaning 'extremely' or 'incredibly,' but the adjective that follows it must still agree in gender and number with the noun it describes. Since it describes the feminine noun coordinación, you must use the feminine form complicada.
Does de lo más complicada mean it is 'the most complicated' dive in the world, or just 'very complicated'?
Is clavado the standard word for 'dive' everywhere? I originally learned salto.
In Latin America, un clavado is the specific and most common word for a dive into water, like in sports or swimming. Un salto is the general word for a jump, though in Spain they use salto or salto de trampolín for diving into water.
Why is inusual placed after clavado here? Could I say Ese inusual clavado?
