Part of a comparison (4)

Ross

I believe the answer is:

than

<span class="explanation-format__ClueExplanation">'<span class="explanation-format__original">part of a comparison</span>' is the definition.<br/ ><span class="explanation-format__explanation">(I've seen this in another clue)</span><br/ ><br/ >This is all the clue.<br/ ></span>

(Other definitions for than that I've seen before include "Rather - - (preference)" , "appearing in comparison" , "Conjunction; harder - some to define" , "Compared to" .)

I've seen this clue in The New York Times.
