About this pattern

Explanation

も又 is a formal, literary variant of もまた. It adds stronger emphasis than も alone and is commonly found in written or formal Japanese. It links two statements by highlighting that the second (or additional) point is true in addition to the first, often with a sense of continuation or reiteration. It is less common in casual speech and may appear in essays, reports, or classic literature to convey a measured, emphatic tone.
