Exceeding; surpassing; going beyond normal limits or what is expected.
From Latin 'excedens' (exceeding), present participle of 'excedere' (to go beyond). This rare English adjective mirrors the more common 'exceeding' or 'excessive.'
You'll rarely see 'excedent' in modern English because we prefer 'exceeding' or 'excessive,' but it pops up in older poetry and philosophy texts as a fancier way to say 'too much.'
