英语:最常混淆的英语单词:Effect
Effect
What you may think it means: To cause something to change。你以为单词的含义是:引起某事发生变化。
What it really means: An event that causes a change。单词的真正含义是:引起变化事件。
A lot of people staunchly
defend the wrong definition of this and it’s understandable. When action A causes a change in object B, action A affected object B and object B has been affected. Effect is an event that causes a change. In our prior example, action A is, in and of itself, an effect because it affects things. It’s admittedly confusing to explain but easy to remember. If it’s a noun, it’s an effect. If it’s a verb, it’s an affect。很多人是错误用法的拥趸者,这是可以理解的。当行动A导致事物B发生变化,行动A影响了事物B,因此,事物B受到了影响。Effect其实是指引起变化的事件。在先前的例子中,行动A本身就是个effect(事件),因为它影响了事物。不得不说,这么解释起来很容易引起困惑,不过记起来却不难。如果是名词,那就是effect(事件);如果是动词,那就是affect(影响)。
