Where do you put differently in a sentence?

How do you use the word differently?

Is differently proper grammar?

1. Both are correct but mean different things. Differently is an adverb and indicates that something would be done in a different way. Different is an adjective and suggests that whatever might be done would be similar to what was done before.

Is it differently from or differently than?

They are both standard, “but only ‘different from‘ seems never to meet objections.” “Different from” and “different than” are both standard, but some guides frown on “different than.” If you want to be safe, use “different from.”

Meanings and Examples of DIFFERENTLY

Hello

You are asking about rules….

The short answer is that adjectives modify nouns and adverbs modify verbs, adjectives and other adverbs.

“Feel” can be a linking verb or a regular verb.

If feel is used as a linking verb, then the adjective “different” must be used. A linking verb “links” a subject with a subject complement that describes or explains it, and the subject complement must be a noun, pronoun or adjective. A linking verb expresses no action so it cannot be modified by an adverb.

I feel different

Subject – Linking Verb – Subject Complement (adjective)

In the phrase feel differently from, feel functions as a regular verb and not as a linking verb. We know this because differently is an adverb (-ly ending), and differently can only modify “feel.” Differently cannot modify “from” because adverbs do not modify prepositions.

As a regular verb, feel means:
Believe
Touch (to examine, test some quality)
Etc.

So, it is perfectly ok to say: feel differently

Some grammarians allow the use of from in differently from if there is no verb in the words that follow:

Do men feel differently from women? (“Feel” means “believe.”)
The surface of the wood table feels differently from the surface of the glass table. (“Feel” means “touch.”)

But some grammarians prefer differently than over differently from, and others rewrite sentences using either construction to avoid a false or questionable comparison between grammatical elements before and after differently, but that’s another story.

Anyway, this is my thinking and I’d appreciate any corrections to my reasoning.
Hope this helps…..

Cheers
