Entropy, like chaos, yk
Yeah, I know it from physics and chemistry. I was confused by your usage.
Entropy is a noun, so you would say something like "these conditions would cause the entropy of the situation to increase" (although that sounds clunky).
Edit: LMK if this is actually helping or if I'm just being a pedantic ass.
honestly if you wanna spontaneously just turn a word like entropy into a verb by putting an h in it, that should be allowed.
I'm trying to think of what the actual affix would be, and my best answer is genuinely "enentropy"
that would be a prefix but yeah.
maybe entrope, entropate, entropize
Prefixes are a type of affix, along with suffixes (and infixes, and circumfixes, though English doesn't have those)
neat!
In this case you would need two verbs: one for increase and one for decrease.
