What’s the difference between “farther” and “further” in English? The general rule is that “farther” is used for physical distances and “further” is used for figurative (not literal) distances, and this is true, but it’s also true that a lot of native speakers don’t even follow this rule! Many natives just use whichever one comes to mind in the moment and it’s especially common to hear “further” used to talk about physical distances, but it’s still a good idea to keep this general rule in mind.
