Etymology of MORE MENDICANT

The word "mendicant" comes from the Latin word "mendicans", which means "beggar", derived from the verb "mendicare", meaning "to beg". The term "mendicant" was originally used to refer to members of certain religious orders who, as part of their vow of poverty, relied on begging for sustenance rather than owning property or engaging in a trade. These religious orders, such as the Franciscans and Dominicans, were known as mendicant orders.

The word "more" has a separate etymology, as it comes from Old English "māra" and shares roots with other Germanic languages. It means "greater" or "additional".

When used together, "more mendicant" essentially means being even more beggar-like or reliant on begging.
