- derrida 10y agoCan you see any dramatic irony here? People use words in a variety of ways - communication: a search for a language that is also yours!
- saalweachter 10y agoOur argument is with your specific views on the meaning of words. Other sources[1] define empathy as "feeling what another person feels" and sympathy as "having compassion for a person without necessarily feeling what they feel". In that case, the judge is clearly empathizing with the defendant, and not merely sympathizing. [1] http://grammarist.com/usage/empathy-sympathy/ http://grammarist.com/usage/empathy-sympathy/
