You wouldn't say "excuse" you would say "excuse me." Excuse me is used when interrupting someone. For example, they're talking to someone and you need to talk to them, you would say "excuse me, I need to talk to you for a second". Sorry is used for when you've done something wrong. For example, "Sorry I'm a bit late." Sorry is also used when you don't understand what someone is saying. For example, "sorry, I didn't quite understand." You could also just say "sorry?" And people will understand 😊

Excuse me is more polite and it cannot be used in some ways. for example
"excuse me" (when u are trying to walk without bumping into people)
"sorry" (you already bumped into someone)
sorry is apologetic whilst excuse isn't.

"Excuse" is an explanation for something you did wrong. "Excuse me" is a polite request to accept something you did wrong from a socal perspective (like burping, farting, or sneezing), or to prevent someone from viewing it as socially wrong (such as bumping into someone or passing by them to closely). Sorry acknowledges a wrongdoing (whether minor or severe) and simultaneously requests forgiveness.
