How do you say this in English (US)? What are differences between "affect“ and “effect"? Could you give me some examples?
- Czech Near fluent
- English (US)
the difference is that “Affect” is you, someone, or something does an action to something/someone whereas “Effect” is the result of an action.
*Affect – Input action
*Effect – Output Reaction
The fire affected the water, causing it to have a boiling effect
The fire did an action/had input and created a reaction from the action.

Affect is a verb 動詞
Effect is a noun 名詞
I will stay quiet during the experiment because I don't want to affect the results.
If I put on too much makeup, it often has the effect that people stare at me.
