In Early Modern English, moreover and besides can license expanded content clauses as their complements. Nowadays the two words are usually used as what traditional grammar calls sentence adverbs. Victor Bob [talk] 06:27, 17 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

I think both moreover and overall are more like adverbs than prepositions, their etymological history notwithstanding. Brett (talk) 11:16, 17 January 2024 (UTC)Reply
