English term or phrase: Even

How do you convey the effect and meaning of "even" such as in "even more".

example sentense

This provokes even more negative reactions

الترجمة لدي الآن هي ما يالي...و لكن لم أقنع نفسي بها
هذا يثير ردود الفعل السلبية أكثر

هل لديكم اقتراحات أحسن من اقتراحي؟

please put your focus on how to keep the effect of the word "even", not on the rest of the example sentence.

thanking you in advance!

Notes to answerer

Asker: thanks for your suggestion, would you please fit it in the example sentence to see if it works?

2 hrs confidence:

even don't translate it

Explanation:
My suggestion is that you shouldn't translate it in this example as the meaning is right without it as if we translated it the Arabic sentence will be weak or poor.

In other texts, the suggestions of our colleagues may fit.

Thanks,
Mohamed
