Sure, I'd be happy to help you understand the word "farther." "Farther" is a word we use to talk about distance. It means a greater distance in physical space. It's like when you're playing tag with your friends, and you run farther than anyone else to avoid getting caught. You could also use "farther" when you're talking about a longer amount of time. For example, if you need to finish your homework, but it will take you farther time than you thought, it means it will take longer than you expected.
