What is the difference between "affect" and "effect"?
That's good to know. Is it ever okay to use "effect" as a noun in a sentence where "affect" would also work?
Generally, no. While they may seem interchangeable at times, "affect" and "effect" have distinct meanings and should be used accordingly. However, there may be some cases where using one over the other could change the emphasis or meaning of a sentence.
