What it means
さらに means “furthermore” or “even more.” It adds another point or indicates that a degree, amount, or action increases beyond an earlier level. It commonly appears before a predicate or before another adverb, and it can also introduce an additional statement in a more formal or written style.
Usage note
さらに can mean either “furthermore” or “even more,” depending on context. Do not automatically translate it as simple “also”; it usually suggests addition, continuation, or a greater degree.
