Yeah I know...I've got a problem with that one...still haven't figured it out...please tell me when to use one or the other...never been told.


then deals with time.

than is a comparison word.

Life is better than death.

Life is the beginning, then death.

Does that help?

Q. What is the difference between then and than?

A. These two words are quite different!

Their only similarity is in the way they sound. Than is used to compare or contrast things, as in "He is a lot smaller than his older brother." Then refers to time or consequence: "And the Canaanite was then in the land" (Gen. xii. 6.); "If all this be so, then man has a natural freedom" (Locke). So if one thing follows or results from another, use then.

Than is also used before a pronoun, as in "Paul loves pizza more than me."

Que est ce que say Julien = ?

????

Julien is a male name, it comes from the latin "Iule", the son of Enee, and gave the name "Julius", like Julius Caesar.
It gave Julien, Jules, (male names) and Julia, Juliette, Julie (female names)


Now, you know ;)
