These two basic words have confused me my whole life and I didn't get the meaning of these adjectives.Every time someone talks or appreciate about my quality or something i wasn't capable of differentiating the depth of what to consider is it a complement or compliment for me....??? For the past few weeks i was in state of critical interrogation and used different tools and supports to search out what's the difference is about and results showed me some mystify answers.

So first we talk about the "Compliment" that's more commonly adopted and used all time to make a person feels better and give them a sense of appraise and courtesy.It's a difficult form to cut off from this approach just like giving someone a good notion to think of himself as more confident and appreciated. Like give some one a compliment only belongs to the two directions one is for the "Flattery" and other thing is just to cherish the "Appearance". As an instance "I complimented on his beautiful hairs.", or "Thank you for the compliment".

Now we can talk about the other "Complement" and it's more dense and expanded in the approximate.It's something we have to say on the completion of something in the relevant manner.It's society building procedure and have to be more in favor to be adapted.People don't really know about the situation and know about how to react.We can say that it's a progression based term mainly used to define as in pair or a group that has better resemblance and attributes.Just like "The new leather seats have complemented the comfort of car". or "The tiles have complemented the floor".

So just to remember the exact difference between these two terms keep in mind that compliment is used just to impress a person or on the individual base, while the complement is gradual incline in the stance of the group or a pair.
Last thing i'll obviously add up just to enhance the approach ability as people should have to run after "Complement" not for a "Compliment".Person with individuality compliment is not a better option to go with, but we have to be in the circle where everyone do good for each other and have a better one to "Complement".....
