Etymology of MORE CHARACTERIZING

The phrase "more characterizing" is not a single word, rather it consists of two separate words: "more" and "characterizing".

The word "more" originated from the Old English word "māra" or "mǣra", which means "greater" or "additional". It can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "*mairô" or "*maizô", derived from the Proto-Indo-European root "*mey-", meaning "great" or "big". This word has remained largely unchanged throughout its history.

The word "characterizing" is derived from the verb "characterize", which comes from the Late Latin word "characterizare" and the Greek word "kharaktērízein". The Greek term "kharaktērízein" means "to designate by a characteristic mark", in reference to the literal marking of an object.
