The difference in meaning is usually explained with some variation of the following: sympathy is when you share the feelings of another; empathy is when you understand the feelings of another but do not necessarily share them.

Sympathy is sharing (Sym-pathos) Whereas Empathy is understanding (Em-pathos) emotions.
