Is anyone else irritated by the in-vogue use of the word, 'Impact'? Have the words 'Effect and Affect' disappeared from the English language? In news reporting Impact is continually used. Impact I thought was to hit or strike something. It was suggested that many do not know how to use Effect or Affect. In the written word maybe this could be the reason. But there is no excuse for using Impact in verbal conversation and news reporting. I'm going to have a beer or ten. It won't have much of an impact. Unless I fall over maybe.😉
