Comparative for Sky Directions [closed]
Can you say that something is more souther or more easter than a specific place? How do you give the comparative and superlative forms for North, East, South and West.
I am writing a book, and to explain the positions of my countries I need to use phrases like "A is more souther than B", while having looked up, the word "souther" apparently doesn't exist.
I add the word southerly which Lexico says is an
ADJECTIVE
1 Lying or moving in a southward position or direction.
So if place B is already considered to be in a southern location then
A is more southerly than B
I need to use phrases like "A is more souther than B",
"A is further south than B"

It seems that farther and further are used indiscriminately... I would use "further".
You would generally say "further South/East/West/North than"
