Etymology of MORE CONTENTING

The phrase "more contenting" is a combination of two separate words, "more" and "contenting". Here is the etymology of each:

1. More:

The word "more" can be traced back to the Old English term "māra" which means "greater" or "additional". It derives from the Proto-Germanic word "maizô" which has the same meaning. "More" has remained largely unchanged in its form and meaning throughout Old English, Middle English, and into Modern English.

2. Contenting:

The word "contenting" is derived from the verb "to content". The verb "content" can be traced back to the Latin word "contentare", which means "to satisfy". In Old French, the term evolved into "contenter" with a similar meaning. Eventually, it made its way into Middle English as "contenten", which also meant "to satisfy".
