Effect (n) vs Affect (v)

Easy tip: Affect // "A" for action

// action as a verb

Affect = to impact or change
Effect = the result of a change

Examples:

1. We have all been affected by the quarantine.
2. Guitars or any string instruments have a certain effect on my mood.

    @Büşra not obvious in speech because they sound very similar but if you are writing it is very obvious, but even native speakers get this wrong most times.
  • Büşra

    Is it a common mistake for natives ? Would it be so obvious if I make it while talking to a native ?
