- Apr 16, 2024, 11:14 AMI disagree, it could also be used as a means of sympathy
According to the dictionary "Condolence" is an expression of sympathy, "especially" on the occasion of the death of a person's relative or close friend.
The word "especially" means more than usual and not something constant. So it could be used in other sympathetic situations as well.
That's my take.

- Apr 16, 2024, 11:06 AMThe word is often used when someone dies. Why not just sympathize or empathize with the person going through a difficult time?

- Apr 16, 2024, 11:05 AMHi everyone, I was going through an online platform of recent and this person used "condolence" as a form of sympathy for someone in a difficult situation (not dead). A lot of folks on the platform were saying it should only be used when someone dies.
How true is this?
