Then and Than

Barb can never remember which word should be used ‘then’ or ‘than’ when she is writing an email or a text message.  She is always asking me which it is.  I thought it was funny because I thought it was obvious.

 

Then Barb read a Facebook link with a list of commonly made grammar mistakes.  In it, they said that it was quite common to confuse ‘then’ and ‘than’  So I guess it is not as obvious as I thought.
