I just checked the wordweb

As per wordweb...Both Affect and effect can be Noun and Verb. i.e.

Affect = Noun as well as Verb.
Effect = Noun as well as Verb.

They are both nouns and verbs but affect as a noun does NOT connote influence. It means an emotion or a feeling.

Speaking very generally, "affect" means "to influence", whereas "effect" means the consequence of some influence. The process of "affecting" something is usually subtler than its "effect", which often has a concrete or finite meaning.

"Affect" also refers to a person's emotional disposition, or to the process of someone pretending to have a disposition, or manner, etc.

These words have several subtly different meanings, depending on the way they are being used. I think it would be a good idea for you to study these links:
