Thanks David for the very fun lessons and the content passed in a "so easy" way. Thank you, too, Rose. You have been part of my life for many months, I will miss you. Thanks for everything, too, to the Khan Academy!
In what amount of time? In one week? I'm still on the 3rd video. Lol. I just wanted to know if anybody made it from 1 to 118 on this playlist. lol However, very motivating and hopefully I can catch up very soon.
Thank you, I have had a difficult time trying to understand this concept. So, thank you for making a video on something that so basic to some and confusing to others.
Yup, it's a confusing thing. I think it is easier to understand when to use "effect," with an "e," than when to use "affect." Here are some examples of EFFECT: "What EFFECT does the moon have on the ocean?" "Climate Change is one of the EFFECTS of carbon pollution in the Earth's atmosphere." Notice here, by the way, that "EFFECTS" is the plural of EFFECT. There could be one EFFECT or multiple EFFECTS. Another example: "That is a cool EFFECT you put on that image." Now, for "AFFECT," with an "a," you can make sentences that *sound similar* to the above usages... For examples, "The moon AFFECTS the ocean." "Why doesn't the medication AFFECT other parts of the body?" It's easy to think to yourself, "All these sentences sound the same, so how could I know which __FFECT to use?" But put them side by side. Let's start with A-FFECT. "The moon AFFECTS the ocean." "The ocean is AFFECTED by the moon." Those make it seem like the moon is doing something to the ocean, which sounds like what a verb might do, so we use the verb version, which is with an "a," AFFECT. Now look at EFFECT. This is the version that does what a noun might do. "Stephan Hawking has a cool EFFECT on his voice." If you read closely, the EFFECT is just a cool thing, and a thing is a noun. Similarly, "What EFFECT does caffeine have on blood vessels?" If you ask yourself, is it a thing or is it an action, you'll get a better sense of whether to use EFFECT or AFFECT, respectively.
Thank you! I still have no idea what's going on. I was hoping I wasn't the only one. This isn't what I was looking for at all. There has to be a simpler explanation out there
I think a list of synonyms will be my solution. Change, impact, influence. Using these words incorrectly could effect the perception others have of me.
I see the psychology term affect alot these days. Its less accurate to call it "personality" than to call it "emotion". Like "The affective response to seeing DJT talk about the wall is strong for many Americans." (okay bad sentence but u get the point).
PLEASE GIVE ATTENTION because the most important thing that should have been in the video, drives all confusion away,makes this whole video like useless and the simplest solution is that when you get confused which one to use use the word......" IMPACT"........... it suits both............ ps : no shortcut with me to distinguish the words when reading,i just avoid those...!!!

It's rather simple actually. "Affect" is the cause/reason, and "effect" is the result. Or expressed differently, the doing and the done
This helped a lot! thanks
Exactly! I still don’t understand why people make it seem more complicated than it actually is!

Anthony Warner this made me even more confused.
@@Whatdafaccio 😂😂
Effect = Cause, Affect = Result.

An affect causes an effect.
Yep

By Khan academy grammar and also david ÷(
"Affect" is a verb except when it's a noun. And "Effect" is a noun except when it's a verb. No wonder I'm confused.
isn't affect pronounced with a schwa?
Well I guess in 2022 I will be able to get here
