C does not semantically separate arrays from pointers, Pascal does this.
C uses indexes starting from 0, Pascal does not.
Pascal usually does not come with strong memory layout guarantees that one knows from C (packing of structs, unions, etc.)
Typecasting in Pascal is a matter of dialect.
There are probably more but I cannot remember them because I have not used Pascal in a very long while.
