alleryIn standard written English, which sentence is correct?
AHe runs faster than me.
BHe runs faster than I.
CHe runs more faster than I.
DHe runs fastest than I.
Answer & Solution
Correct answer: B. He runs faster than I.
**The comparison is elliptical:** "He runs faster than I" means "He runs faster than I do." So the subject pronoun "I" is preferred in standard formal usage.
The other options use an objective pronoun or incorrect comparative forms.
