You use "then" when you are talking about timing -- something that happens next.\n\n"You ask a question, then you get a bunch of answers."\n\nYou use "than" when you are making a comparison.\n\n"You are hoping that we know more about grammar than you do."\n\nI hope that helps.

Yeah, but spell correctly. You don't want to look stupid.\nie.- "through" not "throw"

What about having some fun and inscribing something like this on it...\n\n"If found, please return to <<your name>>."\nOR\n"If found, please return to my loving owner <<your name>>."

"which was to be demonstrated" is the literal translation, but it could be "thus it is demonstrated" as well.\n\nBasically, after making finishing an equation or making a logical point, it is the equivilent of saying:  "See how I did that?"

Cute question.  I'm almost tempted not to try and answer but only agree that you are right, it is just a wrong form of speech.  The truth is, though, we hear it, and it does make sense.  I think it makes sense when the "now" is used not as a reference in time but a reference in a sequence of arguments or acts, a reference in space if you want.  You'll present arguments, and before your conclusion, derived from those arguments, you'll say "now then."  Or you'll do some things like prepare various steps in a recipe, then before you move on, you say "now then."  Is this just more obtuse?

Depending on the inflection (tone) of your voice,\n"What's up?" or\n"What's the matter?"\nLiterally, "What is happening?"

Yes. It should not be an issue if the phrase is properly used.

The second poster is right, except that it would be more correct to say:\n\n"Isso não faz sentido para mim".\n\nYet the colloquial way is as he said.

It's a verb. It's replacing "said" or "says."

After this sentence, start a sentence with "Moreover,"\n\nThat should do the trick!\n\nHope that helps!

I think it's right...seems like you have just replaced should with ought....and if you say it with should it would be grammatically correct, and since ought is a word...I would say YES!

It is not a sentence...\n\nBeneath the noted universal concerns there lies a distinctive world view.\n\n Or better yet use a semi colon after the word preceeding but ..then replacing it with however and a comma...like this \n\n" ; however, beneath these universal concerns there lies a distinctive worldview."
