I would like to understand, where to use Furthermore and Moreover
Please study my corrections to your punctuation.I would like to understand[delete comma] where to use 'furthermore' and 'moreover'.
Are you suggesting that the American Heritage, Cambridge, Collins, Macmillan, amd Merriam-Webster online dictionaries combined are less reliable than people like us expressing our opinions?
If the majority of native speakers see no distinction, then any we try to enforce is artificial.
I use have to and must (for obligation) and may and might (for possibility) in different ways. Other don't, so my distinction serves no real purpose.
You can continue to use moreover and furthermore in different ways. Others may do the same, but those (the majority of us I suspect) who don't make the distinction are unlikely to change our ways.
