mâllon · Greek · Strong's G3123 · 81 occurrences

The KJV renders 12 different Hebrew and Greek words as “more”

What it means

(adverbially) more (in a greater degree)) or rather

neuter of the comparative of the same as G3122 (μάλιστα);

How the KJV renders it

x far, more, much, rather

Where that flattens a distinction

The same English word is also used for these other originals, so the distinction between them disappears in translation.
