Description

People commonly mix up "affect" and "effect".
"Affect" is always a verb, meaning to act on a thing or make it change in some way.
"Effect" is usually a noun, meaning a result or consequence of something happening.

But "effect" is less commonly also a verb with a very different meaning, to bring into existence.
