WOD...taken a step further! (Challenge #1)

Ladies! In an effort to continue to spur as well as inspire, I'm adding an aspect to your daily Word-of-the-Day assignment. Twice a week I will present you with a vocabulary challenge: words/expressions that are commonly confused, making misuse seem like ignorance. Your task will be to determine the issue at hand and then clarify the misunderstanding for yourself as well as others. You will also be expected to use the terms and expressions correctly in a sentence to further insure (ensure???) mastery!

Your first challenge is one I see EVERYWHERE...

Determine the difference in meaning and usage of THEN versus THAN!

We will further discuss this pursuit and will demystify the THEN/THAN confusion when we meet on Friday for PPD.

Stay tuned for further installments of this new and improved WOD activity!

A Preview of Coming Attractions: a selection of these commonly confused words will constitute our May/Final Vocabulary Quiz...so you have THAT to look forward to! :-)
