Частая ошибка:
Learners sometimes use "different" when "distinctive" is better. "Different" just means not the same, while "distinctive" means clearly different in a way that makes something easy to recognize. They also confuse "distinctive" with "unique"; "unique" means one of a kind, but "distinctive" does not always mean that strong.
