The word keeps pointing at the effect — what actually came out of it. Used one way, it praises the doing: the result you wanted did arrive. Used the other way, it looks past the official label and reports the result anyway: on paper it is not that, but in effect it is.

這個字的目光一直放在 effect(實際產生的結果)上。往一邊用,是稱讚做法:想要的結果真的出來了。往另一邊用,是越過名義上的說法直接看結果:帳面上不算,但實際上就是那樣。兩個用法差別在句子關心的是「做得好不好」還是「實際上算什麼」。
