ranther than 与other than的区别

ather than 是宁可
other than 是除了
例:
He is a friend rather than a father.与其说他是父亲还不如说他是朋友.
other than a father,he is a friend.他除了是父亲,还是朋友.

rather than :不是……而是……，一般也可以说成宁可。
在he is a xxx rather than a xxx 的句型里，通常翻译为“与其说是……还不如说是……”
other than: 除了，除……之外。
there is nobody here other than me. 除了我，这里没别人。
you can't get there other...

rather than 常用于比较级中，意思是“而不是”
other than表示除了......以外，相当于except
