Definition
更是 is an adverb phrase that means 'even more so' or 'all the more'. You use it to strengthen a point that already holds true, often in formal or written contexts. It differs from 更 because 更是 explicitly connects back to a previous statement, highlighting that the new case is even more applicable.
