יותר

יוֹתֵר • (yotér)

1. More.

• In Modern Hebrew, when יותר modifies a definite adjective, the ה-‎ (ha-, “[definiteness marker]”) attaches to it, rather than to the adjective itself.
• יותר is typically used in connection with the preposition מ-‎ (mi-, “from”) (with a simple noun or pronoun) or the conjunction מאשר‎ (me'ashér, “from what”) (with an infinitive, prepositional phrase, or clause). These serve the same role in Hebrew that than serves in English.

יוֹתֵר • (yotér) m or f

1. More.

• יותר is typically used in connection with the preposition מ-‎ (mi-, “from”) (with a simple noun or pronoun) or the conjunction מאשר‎ (me'ashér, “from what”) (with an infinitive, prepositional phrase, or clause). These serve the same role in Hebrew that than serves in English.
• When both a noun and a מ-‎ or מאשר‎ clause are explicitly included, יותר itself may be dropped; in this regard it differs significantly from English than.

• ביותר‎ (b'yotér, “most”)
• יותר מדי‎ (yotér midái, “too much”)
• פחות או יותר‎ (pakhót o yotér, “more or less”)
