The Bonfire with Big Jay Oakerson and Dan Soder #352 (29 May 2018) Uploading old Bonfires. If you see ads or an episode is taken down DM me crackle crackle
1:32:09 Look, I know NOBODY CARES but… poor Dan is mixing up [affect vs. effect] with [affective vs. effective] Affect (verb) = to produce change in Effect (noun) = a change that was caused Affective (adjective) = influenced by emotions Effective (adjective) = produces the desired result Here’s where this gets confusing: Affect can also be a noun meaning “observable manifestations of an experienced emotion”. AND Effect can also be a verb meaning “to cause” as in the phrase “to effect change” meaning “to cause change”. In the verb sense, affect and effect are very similar and the latter (that’s the last one, Jay) is rarely used outside that expression “to effect change”. If you got all the way to this last line, I thank and commend you, camper.
