<p>Guys I need help understanding case errors:</p>
<p>e.g You are a better runner than me
You are a better runner than I am.</p>
<p>Please, the first one sounds write but why is it grammatically wrong?</p>
<p>
</p>
<p>“write”…? You really can’t expect to hear the errors…</p>
<p>Well yeah, can you explain to me why it is wrong and to grammatically identify it, Please</p>
<p>Both phrases are correct. </p>
<p>For the first case “than” is used as a “preposition”. Prepositions take “objects”.</p>
<p>So In the phrase: … “than <someone>” you need an object. “me” is the object form of I. </someone></p>
<p>For the second case “than” is a conjunction. The phrase that follows the conjunction is “subject-verb” – e.g. I am.</p>
