Ah brilliant. Yes, I can see that these are inherently different verbs now - thanks for the clarification :-)

<p>So, I'm struggling to see the difference between these two verb-noun collocations.
In your opinion, is there are a difference between:</p>
<ul>
<li><p>受到影响 and 产生影响 to (be) influenced</p>
</li>
<li><p>受到兴趣 and 产生兴趣 to (become) interested??</p>
</li>
</ul>
<p>I feel like there should be a difference, but I'm at a loss to see what it could be... maybe active/passive?!</p>

I'm not sure I understand the question... 受到 means "to be the recipient of an action" or "to receive" or just passive, 產生 means "to produce" or "to bring into being". They are very different words, I don't see the confusion.
