In respect of general adjectival and adverbial use, some usage guides distinguishfarther andfurther, withfarther referring to distance, andfurther referring to degree or time.[1] Others, such as the OED, recommendfarther as a comparative form offar andfurther for use when it is not comparative.[2] However, most authorities consider the two interchangeable in most or all circumstances,[3] and historically, they were not distinguished.[1][4]
Farther is uncommon or old-fashioned in certain subsidiary senses, such as the adjectival sense of "more, additional" and the adverbial sense "moreover". It is virtually never used as a replacement for "further" in the phrase "further to".
As a verb,further greatly predominates overfarther in modern English.
