I would disagree as, as the entry says, it is still used when writing law. Cdhaptomos 22:09, 16 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Why reference to "Therefore"?[edit]

Subsection "Adverb" (English): Why does it refer to "Therefore" and not "therefore" ("Therefore" does not exist here (although it did)). --Mortense (talk) 23:04, 9 March 2016 (UTC)[reply]

synonym of thereof?[edit]

Could some native speaker confirm whether it's a synonym of thereof? --Backinstadiums (talk) 11:07, 26 May 2018 (UTC)[reply]

Therefor is not a synonym of thereof, for for is not a synonym of of. Therefor means "for such"; thereof means "of such". Multiple Mooses (talk) 03:30, 9 November 2023 (UTC)[reply]
