They're both the same thing really, but "belch" implies a loud sound whereas "burp" could be either loud or quiet

Other than the obvious spelling? I think one is a fact of life and just happens where belching is discusting

a burp is basic and usually mild, coming from the throat... a burp becomes a belch when it gets bigger, i..e repetitive, loud, smelly, from the gut.

they both mean the same thing, " a noisy release of gas from the stomach out through the mouth".
