Apology :
- - Ancient Greek : a speech in defense, or justification for belief : apologia : away-speaking
- - 16th-century : remorse
Sorry : c. 1200
- - root A. Old English, Proto-Germanic : sarig, sairagaz : sad, distressed
- - root B. Old English : sorg : sorrow : worry, care
... I need to remember this the next time people start discussing the philosophy of apologies lol.
TOTALLY VALID TO SAY SORRY TO EXPRESS SADNESS WITHOUT REMORSE
LOL
