3. Case of pronoun after“than”or“as”

用在连词 than 或 as 之后的人称代词，其格须与为其比较对象的名词或代词一致。

（1）	He is as wise as she（is）. He is wiser than she（is）.	（He 为 She 的比较对象）
（2）	He loves her better than（he loves）me. He loves her as well as（he loves）me.	（her 为 me 之比较对象）
（3）	He loves her better than I（loves her）. He loves her as well as I（loves her）.	（He 为 I 之比较对象）

故

He likes you better than I. He likes you better than me.

都是不错的，若在 I 后补上 like you，在 me 前补上 he likes，

则知何以要用 I 或 me 了，因一为省去的动词 like 之主语，而一则为省去的动词 likes 之目的语。

至于动词为 be 之场合，则如例（1）所示，代词概为主格，因其为省去的动词 is 的主语，自不能用宾格，所以 He is taller than me. 和 He is as tall as me. 皆是错的，me 必须改为 I。

注意：用在 than 之后的关系代词“who”，必须用宾格 whom。
