I stumble upon a question from a friend about effectivity versus effectiveness as in "the effectiveness of a contract". I have checked thrice in dictionaries that both effectiveness and effectivity exist under entry "effective"
However some argue that 'effectivity' is not an English word, it is a common mistake that non-native speakers always do. Some say that they being native speakers haven't heard the word in their entire life hence assuming it as a mistake.
What say you?
