    deviation from and of?

    Comment
    Can you say both?
    As in: Deviations of language rules can change the meaning of a sentence.

    Wenn man deviations nicht als 'Abweichung' sondern als 'Bruch' übersetzen will...

    Danke!

    No, only 'from.' Actually, it might be better style to use a gerund: Deviating from grammar rules can change the meaning of a sentence.

    'Of' would be for an amount: a deviation of .02% (from the norm/standard) is within acceptable limits.
