Binary form and rounded binary form are mostly the same in that they both have two related themes, one in each section, A and B, modulate to the dominant at the end of the A section, and back to the tonic at the end of the B section. The A and B sections are both repeated in binary and rounded binary form. The difference is, however, that in rounded binary, the theme from the A section comes back at the end of the B section, slightly altered. Therefore the form for binary is simply A:B, whereas for rounded binary it is A:B(A').
