multiple personality vs muti-faceted

[dsjgenius]

i was just thinking that when we tell a person that he/she is multi-faceted it is a compliment but when we tell a person he has multiple personality it is genrally an insult

cud someone help me out and clearify the differneces between these two things as i think thaey r pretty much the same

Multi faceted means many facets of the same personality. It implies depth and complexity.

 

The manifestation of multiple personalities within the same person is a psychiatric disorder (which is not really an insult).

 

Multi-faced (or to be accused of having at least two) is an insult.
