Then vs Than

Difference Between Then and Than

Two words that I, myself misused all the time without truely understanding their difference. Than is used only when comparing objects. I am taller than you. You make more money than me. Think of greater than and less than in math.

Then refers to time in a sequence of events or in reference to the past. I was much thinner back then. First I went to the supermarket, then I saw a movie.

There is nothing more to it.
