    “Affect” is a verb, and “effect” is a noun—except when it’s the other way around: http://nyer.cm/nhQAPwg http://snpy.tv/2elep7b

        This is a great topic! I just had to explain how to express these words on a writing test last week! Effect is result!

        Affect is transitive; effect is causative. 'To effect' is to cause sth to affect sth else. Same as 'set' is 'to cause to sit'.

        Given my foreknowledge of this matter, my affect was unchanged upon my discovery of this post.

        Video was effective in bringing about a blank affect over my face...followed by the effect in my head: explosion. No affective...
