Pronunciation: [mˈɔːɹ ˈɔːd] (IPA) 
The correct spelling of the phrase "more awed" is /mɔːr ɔːd/. In this phrase, "more" is spelled as it is pronounced, with the vowel sound "ɔː" followed by "r." "Awed" is spelled with the silent "e" at the end, which modifies the pronunciation of the vowel "o" from "ɑ" to "ɔ." This phrase is often used to describe a feeling of reverence, wonder, or respect that has increased or intensified.
"More awed" is a phrase used to describe a heightened or increased state of awe that one experiences compared to a previous time or compared to others. Awe itself is an overwhelming feeling of reverence, wonder, or admiration usually triggered by something magnificent, breathtaking, or extraordinary.
When something leaves a person more awed, it means it has surpassed their previously experienced level of awe or has had a stronger impact on them than other similar experiences or objects. This heightened state of awe often involves a deeper sense of wonder or amazement due to the exceptional or remarkable nature of the observed or encountered phenomenon.
For example, if someone sees a beautiful sunset for the first time and is left awed, they may later witness a double rainbow and be "more awed" because the combination of colors and rarity of the spectacle surpasses their initial level of awe. Similarly, if someone visits an architectural wonder like the Taj Mahal and is awed by its grandeur, they may later encounter a historical site like Machu Picchu and be "more awed" due to its astonishing setting and the level of craftsmanship exhibited.
Overall, to be "more awed" is to experience a greater sense of reverence, wonder, or admiration in comparison to previous experiences or alongside other similar experiences.
"More awed" is not a common word in English, and it does not have a specific etymology. However, if you are referring to the combination of the comparative adverb "more" and the adjective "awed", the etymology would be as follows:
1. "More" originated from the Old English word "māra", which is derived from the Proto-Germanic word "maizô". It ultimately comes from the Proto-Indo-European root "*meǵ-", meaning "great" or "big".
2. "Awed" came from the Middle English word "aȝed" or "āwede", which means "filled with awe" or "inspiring great wonder or fear". The term is thought to be connected to the Old Norse word "agi", meaning "fright" or "dread".
