Please,everyone say me:what does it mean all the more so?
- "even more so" - "more (in) that way"
It means all the more so. The so refers to some adverbial or adjectival phrase preceding. DCDuring TALK 01:15, 21 March 2008 (UTC)

[edit]Expressions like all the farther/higher occur chiefly in informal speech: This is all the farther the bus goes. That's all the higher she can jump. Elsewhere as far/high as are generally used. https://www.wordreference.com/definition/all --Backinstadiums (talk) 17:14, 13 March 2021 (UTC)
