| X is defined as a difference between A and B, between B and C, or between A and C. If X is defined as a difference between A and B, Y is defined as a difference between B and C, or between A and C. If X is defined as a difference between B and C, Y is defined as a difference between A and B, or between A and C. If X is defined as a difference between A and C, Y is defined as a difference between A and B, or between B and C. I want to express the above relation. This is my draft. "X is defined as a difference between any pair of A, B, and C. Y is defined as a difference between another pair of A, B, and C." Is my draft correct? Is there possibility for misunderstanding? |

| I'd do it like this: "X is defined as a difference between any single pair from A, B, and C. Y is defined as a difference between the other pairs from A, B, and C." |
