I've been seeing a lot of original user names on the site and wonder.. what do they mean and what prompted you to choose the one you have? ![]() I'll start.. ![]() I chose this name because I believe it reflects my personality extremely well.. I don't let things "get" to me! ![]() LOL, honey, it should then be "Zero-Affected" - I'm a stickler for grammar. :) |

LOL, honey, it should then be "Zero-Affected" - I'm a stickler for grammar. :) I love grammar too.. and actually have a Bachelors in English.. ![]() being able to manipulate the language is something I enjoy.. and the intended meaning stems from the word "E"ffected.. not "A"ffected.. although admittedly.. I'm mildly A-ffected by the use of "honey"! ![]() just take a look at what Merriam/Webster says: Effect: power to bring about a result : influence <the content itself of television … is therefore less important than its effect — Current Biography> Effect and affect are often confused because of their similar spelling and pronunciation. The verb 2affect usually has to do with pretense <she affected a cheery disposition despite feeling down>. The more common 3affect denotes having an effect or influence <the weather affected everyone's mood>. The verb effect goes beyond mere influence; it refers to actual achievement of a final result <the new administration hopes to effect a peace settlement>. The uncommon noun affect, which has a meaning relating to psychology, is also sometimes mistakenly used for the very common effect. In ordinary use, the noun you will want is effect <waiting for the new law to take effect> <the weather had an effect on everyone's mood>. it wasn't it typo OR misspelled.. it was simply written exactly as it was intended! ![]() |
