Should I write accept or except?

A

To “accept” is used to connote agreement with, or acceptance of something.

For example:

“Mildred has finally chosen to accept the truth.”

The word “except” is used when excluding something or a group from the rest.

For example:

“Share the pies among the children except those at the back row.”
