Requirement and demand both mean a need for something. Requirement is a condition officially needed, often set by rules or institutions. Demand is people's desire to have or buy something, especially in economic or market contexts. Demand as a verb is not compared.
这两个词都表示对某事物的“需求”,但 requirement 强调官方或制度上规定必须满足的条件,语气客观、正式;demand 强调人们想要或渴望得到某物的欲望,常用于市场或供需语境。这里不比较 demand 的“要求,强硬索求”这一动词义项及其相关名词用法。
