instead of和rather than有何不同？

語法上：rather than后面可以接任何和前面一樣的成分，instead of后面不能接動詞性，動詞要變成名詞性比如分詞。

I walk rather than run.I walk instead of running.

Rather than表示選擇、偏好，instead of表示替換。A rather than B可能是B好A更好，A instead of B則讓人覺得A好B不好。

因為上面說的語法原因，當比較的是動詞時，一個是一般式一個是分詞可能會誤導(dǎo)讀者的潛意識，認為兩個動詞的時態(tài)不同，在重要場合要注意避免這樣的歧義。
