Accept and Except
The words accept and except, though they sound very similar, actually sort of mean opposite things.
The word accept means to receive or acknowledge.
Where as the word except means to exclude or disagree with.
Example
I cannot accept, that you invited everybody, except me.
A good way to remember which is correct to use in a sentence, is to ask yourself, could you replace the word accept/except within the word excluding, excluded, exclude.
If the answer is yes, the correct word to use it except, which also begins with an EX.
