i suppose the reason they put the 1st name is because it's less confuseing as it's more words and also becuase it's more easier for it to translate from language to language but

well

    Empathy and Sympathy are not the same thing.

    Empathy is being able to put yourself in someone else's shoes. You can understand and feel the emotions of others in a similar way they are currently experiencing them.

    Sympathy is being able to feel compassion or sorrow for another's situation without necessarily sharing or understanding their feelings.

    If you want to shorthand it even further empathizing with someone is a more intimate connection to someone than just simply sympathizing with someone.
