Talk:Mitgefühl

From Wiktionary, the free dictionary
Jump to navigation Jump to search

The German word "Mitgefühl" means compassion, not empathy. "Mitleid" is frequently but wrongly used as a synonym. Empathy has it's own German word "Empathie" which is a synonym of "Einfühlungsvermögen" but neither of "Mitgefühl" nor "Mitleid". None of them should not be listed as synonyms here. Pending further discussion I will correct this next week. --Arnulf 15:29, 28 November 2011 (UTC)[reply]
