Would you say different then or than?

The correct word depends on the context. Here's a breakdown:

* "Different from" is used when comparing two things.

* Example: "My opinion is different from yours."

* "Different than" is generally considered incorrect in formal writing and speaking. However, it is sometimes used colloquially, particularly in American English.

So, in most cases, "different from" is the grammatically correct choice.
