serdar281kd, I'm not exactly sure what the question is. I think you are trying to say, "I can see the difference between the sentences". " Does that help?

serdar281kd,
I'm not exactly sure what the question is. I think you are trying to say, "I can see the difference between the sentences".
For example:
"My coat is red."
"My coat is green."
If I notice that one sentence has the word "red" and the other has the word "green", I can say, "I can see the difference between the sentences."
Does that

Hello Serdar
You can feel 'difference' only when you compare two or more things.
(EX1) There are many differences between a tiger and a cat. [compare two things]
(EX2) What is the difference among a shrimp, a prawn, and a lobster? [compare three things]
(EX3) There is some difference in the size between an elephant and a mouse.
(EX4) A man and a woman are

Paco,
In your second example, most people would accept "between" for "among". I'm not sure we need to consider "between" ungrammatical in that case.
In your third example, it's "difference in size between ..." (no article between "difference in" and the parameter being considered: "difference in weight between ... ", "difference in height between ", "difference in color betw

OK, I'll edit my prvrious message. But to me "between the three" sounds weird. Etymologically "between" is "by+two".
