MORE CLOCKWISE Meaning and
Definition
-
"More clockwise" refers to a direction or rotation that is further in the clockwise direction, beyond the current position or reference point. Clockwise is a term used to describe the movement or rotation that follows the direction opposite to the hands of a clock. In most conventional clocks, the hands travel in a clockwise manner, moving from left to right or in a circular motion from the top towards the right.
When something is described as "more clockwise," it indicates a greater degree of rotation towards the right or in the direction opposite to the clockwise rotation. It suggests a movement or position that is further along the circular path in a clockwise order, compared to a previous position or reference point.
Using the concept of a clock as a reference, imagine starting at a particular point and rotating towards the right or clockwise. If an object or point has moved "more clockwise," it suggests that it is now positioned further in the same direction of rotation, beyond its previous position.
"More clockwise" can be applied in various contexts, such as describing the movement of a rotating object, the positioning of elements on a circular scale, or the direction of travel in a specific route. The term helps to provide a comparative measurement of the extent or angle of rotation, emphasizing a greater degree of clockwise movement.

Etymology of MORE CLOCKWISE
The term "more clockwise" does not have a specific etymology as it is a combination of two words: "more" and "clockwise".
The word "more" originates from Middle English "more" or "moore", which in turn comes from Old English "māra" meaning "greater" or "to a greater extent". It is related to the Old Frisian "māra", Old High German "mēro", and Old Norse "meiri".
The word "clockwise" is formed by combining "clock" and "wise". "Clock" refers to a timekeeping device, and it comes from Middle Dutch "clocke" or Old North French "cloque". Its ultimate origin is uncertain.
The term "wise" means "in the direction of" or "way".
