And or Or?

Hi everybody,

I �m marking some tests and I need your help.

1. Art is funnier than Geography and Grammar.

2. Art is funnier than Geography or Grammar.

Are they both correct?

Thanks from Italy,

Chiara

I think it �s the first :
Art is funnier than Geography and Grammar.

I would opt for �or �. You are not considering geography and grammar as an entity, but as separate disciplines, therefore you need �or �. But I don �t think anybody would quibble about this...

Also, that sentence might be better with �more fun� than �funnier�.

I think it �s up to the meaning the sentence expresses. If it �s an affirmativa sentence just we can say "Art and grammar are funnier than geography". But if it �s a question it �s better to say "Which one is funnier than geograhpy Atr or grammar".
