Etymology of MOST AFTERWARDS

The phrase "most afterwards" does not have an etymology, as it is not a single word but a combination of two separate words.

- "Most" is an adjective that means the greatest in amount, extent, or degree. It originated from the Old English word "mǣst" which has the same meaning.

- "Afterwards" is an adverb that means later in time or afterward. It evolved from the Middle English word "afterward" which had the same meaning.

Together, the phrase "most afterwards" would indicate something that occurred later or afterward at the greatest extent or degree, but it is not a widely recognized or commonly used phrase in standard English.
