Friends, it's a word, but it's really not a good word.

Take it out of your speech. Take it out of your writing. It's too formal for speech, and it's overused by language learners. It's rarely used at all by most native English speakers.

There are many other, more natural words and phrases you're better off using.

But "moreover"? Kick it to the curb!
