Sucking and spitting

I can't say how often I have gotten the concepts of OSMOSIS and DIFFUSION confused.
DIFFUSION = the movement of SOLUTE from an area of higher concentration to an area of lower
OSMOSIS = the movement of SOLVENT from an area of lower concentration to an area of higher
or
Diffusion = SPITTING stuff
Osmosis = SUCKING fluid
