What does 效かない (kikanai) mean?

Question:


I was wondering the meaning of the word 效かない (kakanai)... it's used in the following line:

ねえ、少しも效かない
(nee, sukoshi mo kikanai)

thank you for your help.

Answer:


If you mean 効かない (note the slight differnce), the sentense means "Hey, it's not effective at all" or "Hey, it's not working at all."
