erlebbar vs spürbar

noticeable / palpable

'spürbar' and 'erlebbar' both relate to perceiving something directly. 'spürbar' describes an effect that you clearly notice, for example heat, pressure, fear, or a change. 'erlebbar' describes more that something is designed so that people can actively experience it. The word often fits exhibitions, history, culture, nature, or events. So 'spürbar' says: you notice something. 'erlebbar' says: you can experience something directly and perceive it with the senses.
