Further/Farther
Farther=Distance
Further=In Depth
One would ask, "How much farther?" on a trip in the car. If you are wondering who traveled the longest distance, ask, "Who came the farthest."
One would ask, "Can we discuss this further?" if they were interested in a more in depth conversation.
ER and EST never go together. Furtherest and Fartherest are not words! (Spellcheck is going to love this one!)
I understand what you mean with further and farther!!!
