Prerequisite vs Requisite
When we read the word prerequisite it implies that there are certain conditions and
requirements that are to be satisfied for an event to take place. The word requisite
vastly differentiates from prerequisite as it implies that there are certain things that are
absolutely necessary in the event that is taking place. Both the words prerequisite and
requisite are used to describe qualifications in the field of education but prerequisite is
used for qualifications that are required by a student to get admission in a particular
course and requisite is used for the qualifications that a student must possess to
complete the course.
Prerequisite vs Requisite
Prerequisite is essential to begin an event but requisite is essential to complete it.
Compassion refers to sympathetic feeling towards another without attempting to know their
feelings or even understanding the intensity of their sufferings. On the other hand, Empathy
refers to trying to imagine anothers problem coupled with strong feeling for that person,
understand his problem and share the feeling. The main difference between compassion and
empathy is in how we approach another. In compassion, we look at the person from our point of
view, but in empathy we try to look from the other persons point of view.
Thus, it is very important to know that in the case of empathy, you would step into the shoes of
the sufferer as far as experiencing the impact of the suffering is concerned. You become one
with him after understanding his or her feelings. Empathy is a complex kind of feeling. It needs
basic understanding of the emotional standards of human beings.
A kind of nervous fear related to something either known or unknown is called apprehension.

require concrete experience to understand, it is the ability to understand throughreliance on


conceptual interpretation and symbolic representation.

surface emotion.

Yours Sincerely vs Yours Faithfully


Yours faithfully should be used in signing off after writing to someone whom you do not
know or have not met. You normally begin with letter with the greeting dear sir or
madam. This is when the recipient is not addressed by his/ her name. On the other
hand, if you are writing to someone whom you have met before or whom you have
known for quite some time, then you can begin the letter with the greeting dear
Mr/Miss/Mrs/Ms and end the letter signing off as yours sincerely. The word sincerely has
much to do with your association with the person with whom you are corresponding. In
other words, it can be said that if you have met the person with whom you correspond
or spoken to him/ her over phone or was introduced by some other person to you, then
you can sign off the letter using yours sincerely by employing your first name. You can
address such a person by his/ her first name too. However, one must remember that
yours sincerely is used for friendly yet not intimate letters.
It is quite interesting to note that letter writing experts would say that the usage of
regards in the place of yours sincerely is highly recommended too. This is possible
because of the fact that you normally use the word regards while wishing a person
known to you or the one to whom you have spoken before.
