contrast

When used as a noun, "contrast" is often paired with the preposition "between" (e.g., the contrast between X and Y). When used as a verb to show differences, you can use it with "with" or "to" (e.g., contrast X with Y). While both are common, "contrast with" is more frequent in modern English. Be careful not to confuse "contrast" with "compare." Comparing often looks for similarities and differences, while contrasting focuses specifically on the differences.
