Than or then? again?

Ok my last question made me sound a little stupid. I know what then means.

Ok this is a group: I Am In a Off and On Friends and More Then Friends situation.

Should that be "thEn" or "thaN"?

That would still be 'than'.. It should also be 'an' instead of 'a'

That is "than". "Then" is referring to a time.

A few things in that sentence:

when you stated "...in A off and on..." it should be AN off and on... you use a when the next letter is a consonant and an when the next letter is a vowel... easiest way to remember... AN APPLE... A BANANA

Than is to 'measure against' (I like hamburgers more THAN hot dogs). Then is either time or a 'choice' (Once we're done at the store THEN we can go to a restaurant and get a hamburger, but if they don't have hamburgers THEN I'm going to get a hot dog).

It is "Than" because you used the word "More" before it, refering to an amount =D

"I Am In a Off and On Friends and More Then Friends situation."

Should be...

"I am in an Off and On Friends and More Than Friends Situation."

I'm not sure where all the capitals should go...I think the rule is first word capitalized, last word capitalized, and the really important words capitalized, lol....

But anyway, it should be "than" and the "a" should be an "an".
