perception vs. perspective #1 (permalink) Sat Oct 23, 2010 11:09 am   perception vs. perspective
 

Hi, I still couldn't entirely grasp the meaning of perception and perspective even after I've looked up in various dictionary sites.

Can anyone help me out with this?

(I'm not a native speaker. Therefore, please feel free to correct me if I've written anything incorrectly.)

Thanks a bunch.

Perception is the process of seeing/hearing/etc.
Perspective is the angle of view, the attitude attendant on seeing/hearing/etc.
