- English (US)
A consequence is a result or an effect of an action
A result is an outcome of an action or actions
They are quite similar, but consequence is often associated with something negative(not always, there can be good consequences too)
“My success is the result of years of hard work”
“I was fired as a consequence for falling asleep during work”
