using then vs than



"Then" and "than" are homophones, which means they are pronounced the same way but have different meanings and uses.


"Then" is used as an adverb to indicate time or order of events. It can also be used as an adjective to mean "existing at that time".
Example:I will finish my work and then go to bed.


Back then, people used to write letters instead of sending emails.
"Than" is used to make comparisons between two things or people.
Example:Apples are healthier than cakes.
My sister is taller than me.


So, the main difference between "then" and "than" is their meaning and usage. Remember to use "then" when referring to time or order, and use "than" when making comparisons.
