On my homework, it says this sentence has two errors; Mom gave my sister more presents then she gave myself. I can't find the errors.

I think the 2 errors are 1. The word Myself should be replaced with me. So it would be “more presents than she gave me”! 2. The then needs to be replaced with a than. Hope this helps.

Answer:

The "then" should be changed to than and "myself" should be changed to me

Step-by-step explanation:

Than is used when you're talking about comparisons; then is used when you're talking about something relating to time. And "me" sounds grammatically correct.
