* Open

    • Take it and submit.

* Grammar: From Bedford's Common Usage Errors

  • Copy into terms and vocabulary:
  • affect, effect
    Affect is usually a verb meaning “to influence.” Effect is usually a noun meaning “result.” The drug did not affect the disease, and it had adverse side effects. Effect can also be a verb meaning “to bring about.” Only the president can effect such a change.
