First, the meaning is different
Attendance refers to the participation of members (sometimes generally referred to as ordinary people) who have the right to speak and vote.
Attendance means attending as a bystander, with the right to speak, but not to vote. In some formal meetings, because it is necessary to let those who do not have the qualifications of voting and voting participate in the meeting, they are regarded as non-voting participants. Generally, they only have the right to listen. These people are called non-voting participants.
Second, the source is different
1 Attendance: Ke Yan's Song of the Red Scarf Our Team's Efforts: "The squadron held a meeting to discuss his problems, but naturally he didn't attend."
2. Attendance: Chapter 5 of Guo Moruo's Hong Bo Qu: "The Design Committee was originally outside the establishment, so it can only attend."
Third, different functions
Attendees should make statements at an appropriate time, and even need to discuss and speak.
The people who attended the meeting only participated in understanding this matter and did not have to express their own ideas.
Fourth, the nature of personnel is different
The attendees are more formal and are invited participants.
The people who attended the meeting were invited to attend for other reasons or their own jobs.
