+ ==Pronunciation==

+ * /ˈvɛr.dər/^(Wiktionary)

+

+ ==Forms==

+ '''verder'''^(Wiktionary)

+

+ ==Etymology==

+ It is [[inh|dum|verder]], the comparative of [[ver]] “far”, with an inserted /d/ as in [[eerder]].^(EWN)^(WNT)^(WikiWoordenboek) The Old Dutch comparative adverb was [[m|odt|ferriro]], recorded as ⟨uerrar⟩ about 1100, and Middle Dutch had comparatives without the /d/, ⟨veerre⟩ and ⟨verre⟩, beside ⟨verder⟩.^(ONW)^(WNT) Besides the literal “at a greater distance”, the word has taken senses in which it no longer works as a comparative, such as “furthermore”.^(EWN)

+

+ Middle and Early Modern Dutch ⟨vorder⟩ is in part a variant with a darker vowel, and in part goes with [[voort]] and [[vorderen]]; the forms ⟨varder⟩ and ⟨veerder⟩ were also used until the 17th century.^(WNT)^(VMNW)

+

+ ==Earliest recorded meaning==

+ The adverb is first recorded in 1340–1360, both as “at a greater distance”, in a line about one who will be the further away, and as “for the rest”, of a man who let nothing else be known about himself.^(EWN) Old Dutch ''uerrar'', in the Egmond Williram of about 1100, says that the fame of grace spreads further.^(ONW)

+

+ ==Semantic evolution==

+ In 1531 ''verder'' meant “onward”, of a man who pretended he would travel on, and by 1773 it formed ''verder gevorderden'', the more advanced.^(EWN) The adjective, “further, more detailed”, is recorded in 1564 in ''verdere informatie''.^(EWN) The WNT lists ''verder gaan'' in many senses, from going on a journey (1531) to going further in one's claims (1841) and making progress (1857), and the saying ''hoe naerder de doodt, hoe verder van hemel'' (1606).^(WNT)

+

+ Negerhollands took ''verder'' in the senses “for the rest” and “then”.^(Van der Sijs 2010)^(Wiktionary)
