Acknowledgement is neutral, a formal statement that something was received or noticed, with no praise. Not compared: acknowledgement meaning admitting a mistake.
两个词都表示对某事的正式或公开承认，但 recognition 强调对成就、努力或才能给予公开的赞誉或褒扬，语气更积极、更强调价值的肯定；acknowledgement 只是一个中性的、确认收到或注意到某事的正式表态，不含赞美之意，也不一定涉及成就。这里不比较 acknowledgement 的“对错误或事实的承认”这一用法。
