How Do You Spell MORE MALIGNING?

Pronunciation: [mˈɔː məlˈa͡ɪnɪŋ] (IPA)

The correct spelling of the phrase "more maligning" can be confusing due to the pronunciation of the "g" sound. The word "malign" is pronounced as /məˈlaɪn/, with a soft "g" sound. However, when "malign" is used as a verb and the suffix "-ing" is added, the "g" becomes a hard sound, as in /məˈlaɪnɪŋ/. Thus, the correct spelling is "more maligning," pronounced as /mɔːr məˈlaɪnɪŋ/. This distinction is important because the two variations of the word have different meanings.

MORE MALIGNING Meaning and Definition

  1. "More maligning" is a phrase that consists of two main components: "more" and "maligning."

    The term "more" refers to a comparative degree, indicating an increased amount or degree of something. It implies that there is a higher level or intensity compared to a previous state or to others. It often denotes a quantitative or qualitative increase.

    On the other hand, "maligning" is a verb form derived from the adjective "malign," which means to speak or act with harmful intent. It involves making false, damaging, or derogatory statements about someone or something, often with the intention to defame or discredit. Maligning may involve spreading rumors, gossip, or innuendos, damaging reputations or causing harm to the character or perception of a person, group, or entity. It can be done orally, in written form, or through any other medium of communication.

    Combining these two components, "more maligning" suggests an escalated or heightened level of malicious intent in making false, damaging, or injurious statements about someone or something. It refers to an increased degree of malign behavior, indicating that the act of maligning has intensified or become more severe in some way. It implies that the negative impact or consequences inflicted by the act of maligning are greater or more intensified than before.
