effect: a noun that means "as a result of"
affect: a verb that mean "to cause"
advice: a noun that means "suggestion to another"
advise: a verb that means "to give a suggestion"
Please, homeschooling mothers look uneducated and incapable of teaching even 6 year olds if they can't distinguish between a noun and a verb. And don't even get me started on using "I or me" and "good or well."

Because the entire universe seems to have forgotten that one. I cheered the day I found a grocery store with a "10 items or fewer" lane.
