What should I say? He is superior than me or he is superior to me?
Words such as superior, inferior, junior, senior, taller, shorter or smarter are adjectives in comparative form. By the way, adjectives are words that tell us more about somebody or something. They are describing words. If you look at the word superior, you will note that it ends in –or and not –er. When you use an adjective with –or, do not use than; use to.
