Whew, this lesson came swift.

Only I’m effected don’t bother me.

Oh poor me I gave it to my husband. Pray for us.

How about prayers for the completely innocent people you might have affected? Never even crossed her mind.

Btw, I think I used effect and affect correctly, but would appreciate being corrected.

EDIT: I always get these two words screwed up myself.

Affect is a verb

Effect is a noun.

To affect something results in a certain effect.

Therefore, I think "affected" should be used in both of your statements.

However, take what I say with a grain of salt...I'm not the sharpest knife in the drawer.

It’s easier being an engineer. We’re not expected to speak good English anyway.

I googled and still don’t know.



At least it’s not as basic as its and it’s so it seems I deserve some slack, just a bit.

Most commonly, though, you are correct in that affect is usually a verb and effect is usually a noun.

Effect as a verb would be something effecting of something else.
Affect as a noun is used commonly in psychology kind of like manifestations.

30 years as an English teacher! You caught me on my lunch between classes.

go back to her church and pray.........................really hard and maybe get the congregation to gather around her husband and do the same.

I hope she keeps us posted...

She says very clearly that "...I'm NOT missing out on worshiping."

Churches are pestholes, full of people just like her.
