Stop asking "How to approach an older/younger person?" or "What to say to an older/younger person?" etc.

What kind of an answer do y'all expect?

"If the person is older, ask them where they were during WW2" or "If the person is younger, ask them about their online graduation due to covid" ??

THE ONLY ANSWER YOU NEED AND ADVICE YOU NEED IS: BE YOURSELF.

As long as the person you are approaching is legal, approach them like you would your peer and just be yourself. There is no special thing to say, no special thing to do BECAUSE OF THE AGE GAPS.

If you need advice about what to say in general, that's a legit question, but don't put the age gap as a relevant issue to your lack of knowing what to say to a potential love interest.

That's all, thanks.
