Etymology of MORE DEMURRING

The word "demurring" comes from the Middle English term "demuren", which traces back to the Old French word "demorer" meaning "to delay" or "to linger". It evolved from the Latin word "demorari", derived from "de-" (meaning "away") and "mora" (meaning "delay").

The addition of "more" to "demurring" creates the phrase "more demurring", which suggests an increased or heightened level of hesitation, reluctance, or reservation. However, it's worth noting that "more demurring" is not a commonly used phrase and may not be found in standard dictionaries.
