"To curse" means put a powerful spell on a person that causes them harm, whereas "to cuss" means is to swear or say bad words.
Unlike a hex, a curse has a long time effect and, aside of being detrimental to the person it's cast upon, it can also be carried on to generations.
Main Differences Between Hex and Curse:
Hexes are short-termed and are less harmful than curses while curses can be very dangerous and long-lasting.
Hexing is usually practiced by people who are involved in witchcraft or black magic and it involves supernatural entities, while curses can be spelled by just about anyone.
Hexing always has an evil intention and so does cursing, but curses can be used for a good purpose, since cursing is also practiced in churches.
A person who's been cursed may not be aware of it, maybe for too long, while a person who a hex is spelled upon usually is aware of it.
Curses are unpardonable and can be fatal to the person who is cursed, while hexes are not that severe.
So, to wrap it all up, hexing and cursing are forms of witchcraft or black magic, though cursing is even practiced in churches for the good of the people.
Hexing is performed by a witch or wizard or warlock who casts a spell on the intended person, and thus the person goes through unfortunate situations and adverse circumstances. It’s short-termed and is less destructive than cursing.
Cursing, on the other hand, can be extremely terrible and can even cause serious injury or kill the person. Its effect is long-lasting and may just pass on generation after generation.
