Remember this!
Circumrotate and revolve both describe circular movement and rotation. However, circumrotate is more specific and often used in scientific or technical contexts to describe the circular motion of smaller objects or body parts around a fixed point. On the other hand, revolve is more versatile and can be used in everyday language to describe the circular path or rotation of larger objects or celestial bodies around another object or point.
