How it's used
Focuses on the gap or mismatch between two points, often used in technical, statistical, or formal contexts. While it can describe physical or numerical differences, it is frequently applied to abstract concepts like opinions, moral standards, or expectations. It carries a slightly more serious or analytical tone than simply saying 唔同.

Common mistake
Avoid using this to describe a simple mistake or a typo, as it specifically implies a variance from a standard, norm, or expected value rather than a mere error.
