annotation vs remark

Both 'annotation' and 'remark' are correct terms, but they are used in different contexts. 'Annotation' is commonly used in academic or technical settings to refer to explanatory notes or comments added to a text or document. On the other hand, 'remark' is a more general term that can be used in everyday language to refer to a comment or observation about something.
