student asking question

What is the meaning of "as" here? Could you give me some example sentences using "I'd rather" and "as"?

"As" is used incorrectly here. He should have used "than" instead. As a native English speaker, the sentence sounds very odd when he uses "as." I guess "as" means "than" here. You usually don't use "I'd rather" and "as" in the same sentence. Here are sentences with "I'd rather" in them. Ex: I'd rather be bored than go with you. Ex: I'd rather study for a test than go to the doctor. Here are sentences with "as" in them. Ex: I'm as lucky as a four-leaf clover. Ex: She is as sweet as they come.
