What is the compartative of word far?

The comparative of "far" is farther.

However, there's a slight nuance:

* Farther is used for physical distance. Example: "He walked farther than I did."

* Further is used for abstract distance or degree. Example: "We need to discuss this further."

So, while "further" is technically also a comparative form of "far," it's more common to use it for non-physical distances.
