:You shouldn't need a spreadsheet, since it's only a 2x2 matrix, meaning just 4 meanings. Briefly:
 
:* Effect (noun): result
 
:* Effect (verb): cause
 
:* Affect (noun): visible sign of mood
 
:* Affect (verb): change
 
 
:There are additional meanings for all of these, but they're generally related to the main meaning in obvious ways. [[Special:Contributions/162.158.255.69|162.158.255.69]] 07:28, 16 September 2015 (UTC)
