remissionPardon Pardon, remission
emission
Usage: Forgiveness, Pardon. Forgiveness is Anglo-Saxon,
and pardon Norman French, both implying a giving back.
The word pardon, being early used in our Bible, has,
in religious matters, the same sense as forgiveness;
but in the language of common life there is a
difference between them, such as we often find between
corresponding Anglo-Saxon and Norman words. Forgive
points to inward feeling, and suppose alienated
affection; when we ask forgiveness, we primarily seek
the removal of anger. Pardon looks more to outward
things or consequences, and is often applied to
trifling matters, as when we beg pardon for
interrupting a man, or for jostling him in a crowd.
The civil magistrate also grants a pardon, and not
forgiveness. The two words are, therefore, very
clearly distinguished from each other in most cases
which relate to the common concerns of life. Forgiver
For*giv"er, n.
One who forgives. --Johnson. RemissiveRemissive Re*mis"sive (r?-m?s"s?v), a. [L. remissivus. See
Remit.]
Remitting; forgiving; abating. --Bp. Hacket. Remissly
Remissly Re*miss"ly (r?-m?s"l?), adv.
In a remiss or negligent manner; carelessly.

Remissness Re*miss"ness, n.
Quality or state of being remiss.
Remissory
Remissory Re*mis"so*ry (r?-m?s"s?-r?), a.
Serving or tending to remit, or to secure remission;
remissive. ``A sacrifice expiatory or remissory.' --Latimer.
