it's like literally not important except for in multiple choice but w/e
Recklessness is where the accused realised the act that constitutes the crime could possibly have been inflicted upon the victim and went and did it anyway ie I saw that pushing my mate who could not swim into the river could have resulted in his death and did it anyway.
Negligence is where the accused had a duty of care which they breached through their actions which weren't according to what they were reasonably expected to do under the duty of care. ie a PE teacher is reasonably expected to supervise their class, but didn't turn up for 15 minutes and in that 15 minutes a kid broke his arm
