Can you tell the difference between 'than' and 'then'?


Can you tell the difference between 'than' and 'then'? I've noticed SEVERAL people on here who can't!?




Than is used for comparison between two items whereas then is always related to time in one way or another, like then and now.

It's very simple.
You use 'than' for any kind of comparison, and 'then' for everything else.

Than is used in comparisons. Then is a word that indicates time. Examples: I like spaghetti better than lasagna. Diane's house is bigger than the farmhouse. I am going to the museum, then the store.
