Daring to Be Different Than (but Maybe Not Against)
If you are a grammar purist of delicate sensibilities, then prepare for a shock: āDifferent thanā sometimes works better than ādifferent from.ā
Traditional grammar rules decree that only āfromā may follow ādifferent.ā So F. Scott Fitzgerald wrote that the very rich āare different from you and me.ā
But what if Fitzgerald had written, āThe very rich are different from what I had expectedā? The preposition āfromā easily handles a noun or two, such as āyou and me.ā It has a harder time with a full clause, such as āI had expected.ā
Wouldnāt āthanā ā because it can be a conjunction as well as a preposition ā sharpen and shorten the sentence: āRich people are different than I had expectedā?
No, says the Associated Press Stylebook: āDifferent,ā it declares, ātakes the preposition from, not than.ā
Maybe, says The Chicago Manual of Style: āWhen a dependent clause follows different, the conjunction than is a defensible substitute for from what.ā
If you're clutching your pearls in horror, then consider this: In the 17th century, some writers tried ādifferent against.ā
Hmm. āThe very rich are different against you and me.ā It certainly kicks up the contrast, doesnāt it? ā Photo of noted rich person Bill Gates by World Economic Forum (CC BY 2.0), via Wikimedia Commons

This Word Confusion is a tricky bugger. The different to is pretty simple, and being a British preference, itās not a confusion American authors are likely to run into. Unless, of course, one of our characters is English. Mmmm, nothing like complicating things up *grin*.
Different from and different thanare MUCH more difficult. I spend more time exploring, tasting, trying out differentā¦
