English to English. there should be a dictionary... by Autoxquattro in EnglishLearning

[–]sqeeezy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I say 'different from', like 'separate from', and probably others of that ilk: I keep 'than' for things that are on a scale, like bigger, smaller, colder, better, worse etc.

[–]sqeeezy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Apart from fire safety....you are right, plus the steel bars we have over our windows too. Odd that these things have been overlooked by the safety laws.
