Etymology of MORE TRODDEN

The word "more trodden" is not a word with a distinct etymology as it is a combination of two separate words: "more" and "trodden".

"More" is an adverb that evolved from the Middle English word "mer", originating from the Old English word "māra", meaning "greater in amount, extent, or degree". This Old English word can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "maizô", which carries a similar meaning.

"Trodden" is the past participle of the verb "tread". It comes from the Middle English word "treden", which is derived from the Old English word "tredan". Ultimately, "tread" can be traced back to the Proto-Germanic word "tredaną", meaning "to tread or step on".
