Mór

méér is a nonstandard typographic variant of the Dutch word meer. In standard Dutch orthography, the word is written without diacritics as meer and has two main meanings: more (as an adverb or determiner) and lake or sea (as a noun). The form méér does not represent a separate lexical item; instead, it appears in certain instructional or editorial contexts to indicate emphasis, pronunciation, or stress during language teaching, lexicographic examples, or typographic demonstrations.

Usage and interpretation

Because the diacritic is not part of ordinary spelling, méér is not listed as an official form in standard Dutch dictionaries. Its appearance is typically confined to learner materials, dictionaries that illustrate pronunciation, or examples in linguistic discussions where a narrator or teacher wants to highlight the syllable or contrast with other words. In such contexts, the accent signals emphasis or helps distinguish the word in a sequence of examples, but it does not create a new meaning.

Relation to standard language

The underlying word remains meer, with meanings tied to context: “more” or “lake/sea.” Outside pedagogical or typographic examples, the diaeresis on é is generally not used in normal Dutch writing. The form méér is therefore best understood as a didactic notation rather than a separate lexical item.
