In a circular motion, the axis of rotation is inside the body, while the axis of rotation in the other case, may be outside. Why the axis is outside in case of rotational motion.
The axis of rotation could pass through the body itself or lie outside the body. If the axis passes through the body, the word spin may be used to describe the rotation. Revolution or orbit would refer to where the axis of rotation lies outside the rigid body.

There are 2 types of motion; translational and rotational motion.
Circular motion is a type translational motion. Eg- a car moving in a curved road
Rotational motion is a motion of a body along iys axis of rotation
Eg-the rotation of earth ,planets etc.
