Eclipses are shadows; the Sun is so bright that it CAUSES shadows, it doesn't EXPERIENCE them.
Total Eclipse of the Sun was created in 1999.

-- During a partial solar eclipse, part of the sun is obscured from our view (by the moon) and the rest of it is still there. -- During a total solar eclipse, the entire disk of the sun is obscured from our view (by the moon).
It is as your question states, partial solar eclipse - the moon only blocks the sun off from earth partially. Total solar eclipse - the moon completely blocks the sun off from earth.
