        EFFECT-N NOTES: Based on verb entry affect.01; corresponds to
        Vncls amuse-31.1. Differs from verb frame in arg2 because mention of
        affect itself is possible with noun. (from effect.01-n)

        Usage note from AHD: Affect and effect are often confused
        because they sound alike and have related meanings. First, bear in
        mind that there are two words spelled affect. One means "to put on a
        false show of," as in She affected a British accent. The other
        affect, the one that is confused with effect, is both a noun and a
        verb. As a noun it is uncommon and means roughly "emotion." It is
        pronounced with stress on the first syllable rather than the second.
        Note that affect does not have a noun sense meaning "an influence
        that brings about a change." As a verb, affect is most commonly used
        in the sense of "to cause a change in:" the ways in which smoking
        affects health. The verb effect means "to bring about or execute":
        medical treatment designed to effect a cure. Its corresponding noun
        means "a result." Thus if someone affects something, there is likely
        to be an effect of some kind, and from this may arise some of the
        confusion. People who stop smoking will see beneficial health
        effects, but not beneficial health affects. The verbs produce
        important differences in meaning. The sentence These measures have
        been designed to effect savings implies that the measures will cause
        new savings to come about. Using affect in the very similar sentence
        These measures will affect savings implies that the measures will
        cause a change in savings that have already been realized.
