valientísimo or valentísimo ?

valientísimo or valentísimo ?

El capitán es un hombre (valiente). Darn. Wrong answer. Change the ending from -o to -ísimo to form the superlative for a singular masculine adjective. Correct answer: valientísimo

This was in the Superlatives - the best, worst, most, & least practice quiz. Wouldn't the correct answer be "valentísimo" ?

And does anyone know the proper place to report errors like this?

You are right, valientísimo does not exist in Spanish. It has an irregular superlative form. In accordance with the R.A.E.:

valentísimo, ma.

(Del sup. de valiente).

  1. adj. Muy perfecto o consumado en un arte o ciencia.
