Sometimes students can get a bit confused with the words: (a) different, another, (the) other and (the) next. Try the first exercise, then we’ll take a look at the differences, with some more exercises and a story.
Click and Drop — Where you see this sign, mouse over for instructions
Exercise 1 — Fill the gaps using the words in the box.
My friend Rachel and I wanted to visit one of our (1) friends, who lived in (2) part of town. Where she lives is quite (3) from our part of town, lots of trees and parks and so on.
So anyway, we walked down to the bottom of the street and waited at the pedestrian crossing, as the bus stop was on (4) side of the road. It was one of these crossings where there are (5) lights for pedestrians and cyclists. But just as we were about to cross the road, we saw our bus, the 27, come up the road, stop and move off again.
‘Don’t worry’, I said, as we crossed the road, ‘there’ll be (6) along soon’. When we got to the bus stop, there were a couple of (7) people, who hadn’t got on the 27, so presumably they were waiting for a (8) bus.
But when we looked at the timetable we saw that (9) 27 wasn’t for (10) fifteen minutes. ‘Why don’t we get a (11) bus? There’s a 31 in five minutes’, suggested Rachel. ‘But none of (12) buses go anywhere near where we want to go.’ I answered, ‘We’ll just have to wait for (13) 27′.
‘I can’t be bothered waiting here for the (14) fifteen minutes’, said Rachel, ‘How far is it to (15) bus stop?’ — ‘There’s (16) about half a mile up the road’, I answered. ‘So let’s walk to (17) stop then, it’s better than waiting here’.
So we set off up the hill. After a only couple of minutes, Rachel asked, ‘How much further?’ ‘Just (18) couple of hundred yards’, I said, and for (19) few minutes neither of us spoke, as it really was quite a steep hill. Finally we arrived at the bus stop. ‘At last’, sighed Rachel. And in the far distance we could see our bus, stopped at (20) bus stop. All we had to do was wait (21) couple of minutes, and we’d be on our way.

different (adjective)
The word different stresses that two or more people or things are not the same It is the opposite of similar. It can be used with a preposition when making comparisons, or it can come before or after a noun. Notice the use of different prepositions in British English (BrE) and American English (AmE). This is the usage my (British) dictionary gives:
- She is quite different from her sister. (Both BrE and AmE)
- This is very different to what I was told earlier. (BrE)
- He is different than I remember. (AmE)
The use of from is most common in both branches of English, and is the only one that all authorities accept as correct. The use of the other two prepositions is the subject of much debate on language websites. (Many American authorities do not accept than as being correct). So as a learner, if you use from, you’ll keep everyone happy. But recognise that native speakers might use one of the other two, especially informally.
The use of than seems to be more acceptable, both to the British and to some American authorities when it is used with a clause. Compare these two sentences:
- The town is very different now than it was twenty years ago.
- The town is very different now from what it was twenty years ago.
- The town is very different now to what it was twenty years ago.
(BrE)

other (determiner, adjective)
This has several uses:
- To talk about people or things that are additional to those already mentioned:
There were Tom and Harry and some other people I didn’t know. - To talk about the second of two people or things:
The bus stop was on the other side of the street. - To talk about the remaining people or things in a group:
I’ll have to wear these shoes. All my other ones are dirty. - To talk about the opposite direction:
We saw a bus coming the other way.
Note 1 — In uses 2 and 3, we use the, my, your etc before other. In the last use we use the.
Note 2 — Sometimes we use (the) other(s) as pronouns.
- The bus is about to go. Where on earth are the others? (i.e. the other people)
- I’ll have to wear this tie. None of the others match this shirt. (i.e. the other ones)
- Her children seem to be rather tidier than some others I could mention! (i.e. the child(ren) this person is talking to)
another (determiner)
The word another is simply an + other. It can be used:
- To talk about an extra person or thing:
There’ll be another bus in a few minutes. - Or one extra group or quantity of people or things:
The bus stop is just another hundred yards. - It can also be used to mean a different person or thing:
We could go another day, instead. - And to mean a person or thing of a very similar type:
This is going to be another of your stories, isn’t it?
Note 1 — Sometimes there is little or no difference between another … and a different …
- We could try another bus.
- We could try a different bus.
Note 2 — We can also use another as a pronoun.
- These biscuits are great. Can I have another.
- If you don’t like this room, we could ask for another.
Exercise 3 — Fill the gaps with other(s), the other(s) or another.
| 1. | Do you know who I saw day? Mark. You know, Mark Jones. | |
| 2. | Would you like cup of coffee? | |
| 3. | There are only two cakes left. I’ll have this one and you can have . | |
| 4. | I know Pete of course, but who are all those people? | |
| 5. | That’s enough for today. We’ll finish it some day. | |
| 6. | In that last sentence we could have also said ‘ day’. | |
| 7. | We were out hill-walking with some friends from college. | |
| 8. | ‘Where are ?’ ‘It’s OK, they’re not far behind.’ | |
| 9. | ‘Come on you people, it’s just mile to the top.’ | |
| 10. | All animals are equal, but some are more equal than . | |
| 11. | Don’t worry darling, we’ll just be in the room. | |
| 12. | We’ll put this table on the side of the room. | |

| 14. | We’re going in the wrong direction. We need to go way. | |

- Sandy taught Pierre to speak Danish.
- Pierre taught Sandy to speak French.
- They taught each other (or one another) to speak their respective languages.
- Sandy taught herself to speak Russian.
- Pierre taught himself to speak German.

various (adjective)
This means several different
- This phone comes in various colours.
- We can do this in various ways.
- She was attracted to the job for various reasons.
Note — In the first two examples we could probably just say different instead of various. But if we did that in the last example, the meaning would change, so if we wanted to say different, we would need to add several
- She was attracted to the job for several different reasons.
next (determiner, adjective)
The word next, usually used after the, is used to talk about somebody or something coming immediately after somebody or something else, especially when they are part of a sequence.
- When’s the next bus?
- Let’s walk to the next bus stop.
- The next five minutes were the longest wait in my life.
- One moment the sun’s shining, (the) next thing (you know) it’s pouring with rain.
- Be more careful (the) next time.
- We’re in the next room. (e.g. in a hotel)
Note 1 — We very often use next to talk about time — next week etc. But be careful. Firstly we often use this … to refer to days in the current week, and next … to refer to days in the following week. Let’s say today is Monday 1st January. So I might say this Thursday to mean Thursday 4th January. Now if somebody (on Monday) says,’See you next Friday, it’s not always clear whether they mean Friday 5th January or Friday 12th January (i.e. Friday of next week). If you’re not sure, just ask. We often do.
Note 2 — Secondly there’s a difference between next week, month etc, and the next week, month etc. Next week is the following calendar week, i.e. Monday-Sunday or whatever. But the next week is the next seven days from today. The same difference exists between last week, year etc, and the last week, year etc.
- I’m moving to France next year. (2012 — this is 2011)
- I hope to move to France within the next year. (Within the next 12 months)
- We went to Spain last year. (2010)
- We‘ve been to Spain three times in the last year. (In the last 12 months)
Note 3 — See how this affects the tense you use with (the) last …

Exercise 4a Fill the gaps using the words in the box.
| 1. | We’re going on an expedition to the hills week. I hope it’s not like the last time, when a few of us decided to go youth-hostelling in the Highlands for the weekend. When we arrived at the village, the hostel was full and they told us there wasn’t for twenty miles. Eventually we found a couple of Bed-and-Breakfasts. There were only two in the village. Four of us got rooms in one, and managed to find somewhere in . |
| 2. | The owners of our one were Danish, and breakfast was certainly from anything I’d had before — open rye bread sandwiches with kinds of toppings. And three kinds of cheese. After that I couldn’t have eaten thing. |
| 3. | But the rest of the day was not going to be quite so perfect. We spent the twenty minutes waiting for before we could start up the hill. Eventually we moved off. The first two miles took us gently through a forest, but the with two the track started to get a bit steep. And then the mist came down and we soon got lost. In the mist, one mountain track doesn’t look very from . And although I knew how to use a map and compass, some of weren’t so competent. Or particularly confident in my skills, I think. |
Exercise 4b Fill the gaps using the words in the box.
| 1. | ‘I’ve got an idea’, said one of them. ‘The stream we come to, we’ll follow it down the hill, and that will take us down to the valley.’ ‘Has anyone got any ideas?’, I asked. Nobody had. But before we could find a stream, the mist suddenly cleared and the sun came out. This put a perspective on things, and we started up the hill again. After an hour so we reached the top of the first peak. Only three peaks to do, I said. We were doing a ridge walk, you see. Well, were happier now, and we reached two peaks quite quickly. |
| 2. | But the last one proved a bit of a challenge. There was a narrow path along the ridge, leading to the peak. On one side there was a sheer drop to the valley below, on a grassy slope, unbroken for some 500 metres. ‘I don’t think I can do that.’ someone said. ‘Nor can I’, voice was heard to say. ‘But it’s only two hundred metres along that path and we’re at the peak, and after that it’s all plain sailing.’ But to no avail. I suppose people have ideas about what’s safe and what’s not safe. And in the mountains, you can’t really be too careful. |
| 3. | So of course we had to turn round, and trudge back in direction, back the way we had come. And for hour or so, nobody spoke until we saw, coming the other way, group of walkers, who we naturally said ‘Good day’ to. After that the mood lightened and I said, ‘OK, today was a bit of a disaster, but I’m sure there’ll be .’ Well day it poured with rain all day, so that wasn’t going to be one of them. And that’s why we’re off again week. But to a village this time. And we’ve booked rooms. That’s thing I learned from that weekend. |

Which sentence is correct?
Origin of different
First recorded in 1350–1400; Middle English, from Anglo-French, from Latin different- (stem of differēns ), present participle of differre “to scatter, disperse”; see differ, -ent
usage note for different
Although it is frequently claimed that different should be followed only by from, not by than, in actual usage both words occur and have for at least 300 years. From is more common today in introducing a phrase, but than is also used: New York speech is different from (or than ) that of Chicago. Than is used to introduce a clause: The stream followed a different course than the map showed. In sentences of this type, from is sometimes used instead of than; when it is, more words are necessary: a different course from the one the map showed. Regardless of the sentence construction, both from and than are standard after different in all varieties of spoken and written American English. In British English to frequently follows different : The early illustrations are very different to the later ones. The use of different in the sense “unusual” is well established in all but the most formal American English: The décor in the new restaurant is really different.

usage for different
The constructions different from, different to, and different than are all found in the works of writers of English during the past. Nowadays, however, the most widely acceptable preposition to use after different is from . Different to is common in British English, but is considered by some people to be incorrect, or less acceptable. Different than is a standard construction in American English, and has the advantage of conciseness when a clause or phrase follows, as in this result is only slightly different than in the US . As, however, this idiom is not regarded as totally acceptable in British usage, it is preferable either to use different from: this result is only slightly different from that obtained in the US or to rephrase the sentence: this result differs only slightly from that in the US

How is the word different different from other adjectives like it?
Some common synonyms of different are disparate, divergent, diverse, and various. While all these words mean «unlike in kind or character,» different may imply little more than separateness but it may also imply contrast or contrariness.
When could disparate be used to replace different?
The words disparate and different are synonyms, but do differ in nuance. Specifically, disparate emphasizes incongruity or incompatibility.
disparate notions of freedom
When can divergent be used instead of different?
Although the words divergent and different have much in common, divergent implies movement away from each other and unlikelihood of ultimate meeting or reconciliation.
went on to pursue divergent careers
In what contexts can diverse take the place of different?
In some situations, the words diverse and different are roughly equivalent. However, diverse implies both distinctness and marked contrast.
such diverse interests as dancing and football
Where would various be a reasonable alternative to different?
While in some cases nearly identical to different, various stresses the number of sorts or kinds.
No, they are not fully interchangeable. Perhaps the best way to illustrate is to ring all the changes on the various words of your list and the different examples you give us to explore their distinctions:
1) A person of diverse interests can talk on many subjects.
A person of various interests can talk on many subjects.
This is a valid substitution; it differs from the «diverse» version only in that «diverse» implies and stresses a greater range and variability in the interests. The person with «various» interests may be able to talk on many subjects, but the person with «diverse» interests can talk on many subjects which have surprisingly little to do with one another.
A person of different interests can talk on many subjects.
Used this way, it is somewhat non-idiomatic, raising the question «different from what?» «Different» doesn’t imply «many», merely «not the same».
A person of distinct interests can talk on many subjects.
Similarly, «distinct» does not imply «many», merely «clearly distinguishable (from each other)». But used this way, it doesn’t mean that either; it would be read as an alternative definition which leaves out the «from each other»: «marked» or «notable». Thus this sentence, which is also somewhat non-idiomatic, interestingly suggests something quite distinct from the previous: it’s not the number of interests that allows a person to talk on many subjects, but how readily you can distinguish his interests as his.
A person of disparate interests can talk on many subjects.
«Disparate» implies «far apart (in some characteristic)». It implies even more strongly than «diverse» that we’re referring to someone who has many interests, but it goes even further. It describes the interests not merely a many, but as having nothing to do with one another. It would actually succeed in communicating that the interests were «distinct» (in the first sense) in the way using «distinct» wouldn’t. This sentence says that someone who has many interests which are non-overlapping can talk on many subjects.
2) We have looked at various houses, but have decided to buy this one.
We have looked at diverse houses, but have decided to buy this one.
The houses we looked at were in a wide variety of styles.
We have looked at different houses, but have decided to buy this one.
Identical meaning to the original.
We have looked at distinct houses, but have decided to buy this one.
Nonsensical. Houses are typically readily distinguishable from each other and everything else.
We have looked at disparate houses, but have decided to buy this one.
Not very idiomatic. We looked at houses which had nothing in common — we have no idea why the agent showed them to us, she seemed to be picking them at random, so we’re firing her and getting a new one.
3) The department store sells many different things.
The department store sells many diverse things.
It’s remarkable the breadth of the department store’s inventory.
The department store sells many various things.
Almost identical to the original, but doesn’t emphasize the variety of things sold as much as «different».
The department store sells many distinct things.
Nonsensical.
The department store sells many disparate things.
The store has the most random and ecclectic inventory of any store I’ve been in.
4) The criminal was charged with two distinct offenses, one being murder, the other bribery.
The criminal was charged with two diverse offenses, one being murder, the other bribery.
Nonsensical. If there’s only two, how can they be diverse? Diverse implies a group of things across a range.
The criminal was charged with two various offenses, one being murder, the other bribery.
Nonsensical. Again, this word implies «many», and if there’s only two, it doesn’t make sense.
The criminal was charged with two different offenses, one being murder, the other bribery.
Perfectly fine, but unlike the original, doesn’t emphasize that the two charges are being distinguished from one another. Perhaps in the «different» formulation, they were two separate criminal instances, a month apart. But in «distinct», there’s the implication that he could have been charged under a single criminal statute, but the state decided to break it down into these two. Perhaps murder + bribery is a bad example: consider,
After the star witness was found beaten into a coma, the criminal was charged with two distinct offenses, one being attempted murder, the other witness intimidation.
The criminal was charged with two disparate offenses, one being murder, the other bribery.
In the criminal justice system, when evaluating offenders for likelihood to reoffend, one thing which is noted is «criminal versatility», which refers to the diversity of types of crimes for which the inmate has been sentenced over his or her criminal career; inmates with high levels of criminal versatility are more likely to reoffend.
That is the only circumstance I know of in which the disparateness of a criminal’s crimes might be under discussion. «Yeah, he’s only had three arrests, but for one of them, he was charged with two quite disparate offenses, one being murder, the other bribery. So there’s more evidence of criminal versatility in his case than it seems at first blush.»
5) Don’t confuse these disparate concepts.
Don’t confuse these diverse concepts.
There’s a lot of these concepts and they cover a lot of ground.
Don’t confuse these various concepts.
There’s a lot of these concepts. Try to keep track.
Don’t confuse these different concepts.
They may look the same, so I understand how you might confuse them, but actually these concepts aren’t the same, so don’t confuse them.
Don’t confuse these distinct concepts.
These concepts quite clearly do not overlap, so you really don’t have an excuse for getting confused by them.
I hope that helps!

1.то, что дизайн?
слово дизайн означает разные вещи для разных людей.одно определение, данное дизайнер ричард сеймур «сделать жизнь лучше для людей».
2.то, что дизайнеры?
ученые могут изобрести технологии, производители могут сделать продукты, инженеры могут сделать их работу и продавцы могут продать их.однако только дизайнеры могут объединить все эти вещи.дизайнеры очередь идея во что — то, что является желательным, коммерчески успешных и повышает ценность жизни людей.
3.важным элементом дизайна.
хороший дизайн начинается с потребностями пользователей.хороший дизайн выполняет.дизайн не должна быть новой, различных или впечатляющие, чтобы быть успешной на рынке, но она должна удовлетворять потребности.тем не менее,верно также и то, что нередко приводит к методам разработки инновационных продуктов и услуг.
4.неверные представления о дизайне.»многие люди заблуждения о дизайне.журналы зачастую используют слово дизайн, когда они означают стиля и моды.например, когда они показывают тостер или открывашка, которые хорошо спланирована, приводит к тому, что люди думают, что дизайн — это только о том, как это выглядит.дизайн также о том, что происходит.в действительности, как продукт выглядит — то, что происходит в конце продукт процесса развития.
5.ограничения на дизайнеров.
дизайнеров, в отличие от артистов, не только за свои творческие чувства.они работают в коммерческой среде, которая означает, что многие вопросы для обсуждения.дизайнеры должны задать себе вопросы, такие, как:»это продукт действительно хотел?»,» как это отличается от всего остального на рынке?»,» это выполнять надо?»,» это будет слишком дорого производить?»и» это безопасно?»
