@PerfectionOfTheHeart maybe the yan part is - but they should still be pronounced differently.

I don't even have a normal Irish accent. It's some bizarre blend of Northern and Southern Irish, and Buckinghamshire 😩

It's awful. Anywhere I go, I get people asking about my accent 😭 People here usually think I sound English. English people think I sound Irish. I've even been asked if I'm Scottish more than once.
But I am a little bit posh yeah 💀

Yes, because "then" and "than" are two entirely different words, each with different meaning and a specific pronunciation that is unique to each word.
Seems like an odd question. Why would you even ask such a dumb question unless you thought it was okay to pronounce both words exactly the same?
