You can derive from multiple interfaces, but not from many classes. Or actually, one says "implement an interface" not derive. (Interfaces are not classes)

An interface can only declare constants and instance method signatures, it cannot implement default behavior. An abstract class has at least one instance method that is declared abstract which must be implemented by all subclasses. It can also have additional instance methods that implement default behavior.
