Further and Farther usually used incorrectly. Here's some help.

Farther is used for when writing about distances.
It is farther to go to the park than the book store.
Great Britain is farther west than Scotland.

Further is when you ARE NOT talking about distances. In this case, it usually means "additional."
Further information can be obtained at your local library. <---So true :lol:

So like...

Further more I would like to say that you have extra homework

that?

No, furthermore is a seperate word in its own right. Further CAN be used to describe distance, but only in general terms with regards to having an additional distance, and its usage in this sense is almost archaic. Example: "The horses were exhausted, but we still had further to go before we could reach shelter."

For the most part, the 'greater degree or extent' meaning is the one you find used most commonly these days. Example: "You need further training before you can continue along this path."

I see

Furthermore is an adverb which indicates "MORE THAN THAT/ PLUS" <.<

-Lambchopsil is a prufriider. FURTHERMORE his grades at school are good <.<
(lucky lamby <.< >.>)

Furthermore functions strictly as an adverb - you're correct about that. Further, on the other hand, can be an adverb as well as an adjective, or a transitive verb. That's why it can be used in the sense of 'going beyond' or 'greater extent', such as in the original example.

But that's beside the point. :D
