- do smth in a different way
- go to different shops
- have accounts with two different banks
- look at smth from different points of view
- see things in a different lightCHOICE OF WORDS:(1.) Русским прилагательным разный, различный соответствуют в английском языке прилагательные different и various. Different определяет любые существительные (исчисляемое и неисчисляемое) в единственном и множественном числе и подчеркивает несходство: I feel a different person я чувствую себя совсем другим человеком; I called up three different times я звонил трижды в разное время. Various определяет только исчисляемые существительные во множественном числе. В отличие от different, various не столько отличает, сколько подчеркивает большое количество одинаковых, однотипных предметов, разновидности одного и того же класса или одной и той же категории: various forms of transport разные виды транспорта; various ways of cooking meat разные способы приготовления мяса. (2.) See various, adj; Choice of WordsUSAGE:(1.) Прилагательное different употребляется только атрибутивно, т. е. перед именами существительными. Русское "отличаться от кого-либо, от чего-либо, быть не таким как обычно" передается в английском языке конструкцией to be different from smb, smth: he is different from all of us он не такой, как все мы/он отличается от нас. (2.) Прилагательное different по своей семантике относится к прилагательным сравнения, и поэтому в отрицательных предложениях употребляется с отрицанием no, а не not: this trip was no different from all others эта поездка ничем не отличалась от всех остальных; ср также he is no taller than his brother он не выше своего брата.
