When someone flips between one language to another instead of just sticking with one.

Most often used in online content when metadata or intro is in English but the audio is in another language.

The "Matei Effect" is a term used to describe whenever a joke or meme based on another piece of media becomes more recognised and widespread than the original media itself. Often common within the younger crowd.

The term "Matei Effect" was coined when Mike Matei's video of "Minecraft with Gadget" became an immensely popular meme which has now overshadowed the original "Inspector Gadget" show itself.

As a result, younger generations may only know of Inspector Gadget because of Mike's video and have likely never seen any other official Inspector Gadget media ever beforehand. Causing what's called the "Matei Effect".
big chungus (Bugs Bunny), garfielf (Garfield), we live in a society (Joker), Grand Dad (Flintstones) are all victims of the Matei Effect!
