    As a verb affect means “to act on” or “to move” (His words affected the crowd so deeply that many wept)

    The effect was that they were relocated.

    The noun effect means “result, consequence”: (the serious effects of the oil spill.)

    At least I think thats right.
    Yep. I think so too. But you left out an apostraphe in "that's right".

    p.s. And I spelled apostrophe wrong. There's always something :O
