Is 'divergent of' correct?
Hi,
The following was quoted in a newspaper:
"Organisations and charities must conduct themselves in a way that the general public expects of them. And not behave in a way that is very divergent of what the public expects."
Shouldn't it be 'divergent from' instead? Or both are correct?
