Than meaning


Than is a versatile word that is commonly used in English to make comparisons between two or more things. It is often used to express a difference in degree, preference, or quantity. In this article, we will explore various tips and examples on how to effectively use the word "than" in sentences.


1. Comparative Statements: One of the primary uses of "than" is to compare two things or people. When using "than" in a sentence, it is important to remember that it should be followed by a noun, pronoun, or a verb in the base form. For example: - "She is taller than her brother." - "I prefer tea rather than coffee." - "He runs faster than anyone in the race."


2. Expressing Preferences: "Than" can also be used to express a preference or choice between two options. In such cases, it is often used after adjectives or adverbs. Here are a few examples: - "I would rather go to the beach than stay at home." - "She would rather eat pizza than sushi." - "He would rather sleep late than wake up early."


3. Quantity Comparisons: When comparing quantities or numbers, "than" is commonly used to indicate a difference. It is often used after comparative adjectives or adverbs.

5. Avoiding Double Comparisons: One common mistake to avoid when using "than" is the double comparison. This occurs when both "more" and "than" are used together, which is unnecessary. For example: - Incorrect: "She is more taller than her sister." - Correct: "She is taller than her sister."


6. Using "Other" with "Than": When comparing one thing to a group or category, it is common to use the word "other" before "than." This helps to clarify that the comparison is being made within a specific set. For example: - "She is more talented than any other singer in the competition." - "This car is faster than any other car on the market."
