영영 풀이

  • conj. A particle expressing comparison, used after certain
  • adjectives and adverbs which express comparison or diversity, as more,
  • better, other, otherwise, and the like. It is usually followed by the
  • object compared in the nominative case. Sometimes, however, the object
  • compared is placed in the objective case, and than is then considered
  • by some grammarians as a preposition. Sometimes the object is expressed
  • in a sentence, usually introduced by that; as, I would rather suffer
  • than that you should want.
  • adv. Then. See Then.
