Default Re: \"Happy Holidays\" v. \"Merry Christmas\"

[ QUOTE ]
I've heard that the OED has recently started including "moreso". Unfortunately, I don't have a copy to verify that.

It's way down under "more"

f. With ellipsis of the word or sentence modified. Now freq. with anaphoric so (see SO adv. 4a) in more so (also, chiefly U.S., moreso). (all) the more: the rather, the more so (as, because, etc.).
