They both really mean the same thing. Rough can focus more the the texture, and course can focus more on texture and size/quantity/and volume.

For example:

If my hair is course, I’m saying it’s thick, big, tricky to comb, and kinda rough.

If I say my hair is rough, I’m referring the the feeling of the hair when I touch it. It’s rough and not smooth.

Does this help?

@taymarie I spotted that you spelled it "course" as in "of course".
is that brcause they sound the same? do many people do the same?

Oh no I’m so sorry, I misspelled it. 😭😖🤦🏾‍♀️ I didn’t mean to confuse you. It’s supposed be be coarse. Course and coarse sounds exactly the same, but the definition and meaning is totally different between the two.

And no, people don’t normally use a different word because they sound the same. I just made a mistake.

@taymarie thanks!
btw, can someone's hand be 'coarse'?
or it's usually only rough for skin?

Yes, but rough sounds way better than course in that context.

“His hand is rough.” Is perfect, and is easily understood.

If you say, “His hand is coarse.” I would understand that you mean rough, but I would also have to think about it and imagine to try to understand what you mean by a coarse hand.
I would imagine not only you feeling the surface of his hand, but probably massaging or physicality examining it to get a coarse feeling.

Did you understand, or was it confusing.
