What's the difference between Folge / Auswirkung / Konsequenz / Wirkung / Ergebnis / Strafe
consequence — a result of an action or event
Usually means a noticeable effect or impact that something has on a situation, health, behavior, etc. It emphasizes the impact itself more than a simple final result.

The closest synonym to *Folge*. It often means a logical or inevitable result, sometimes with a sense of strict cause-and-effect.
Als Konsequenz seiner Entscheidung verlor er viel Geld.
Вследствие своего решения он потерял много денег.
Usually means the effect or action something has on someone or something. It is often used when the focus is on the impact itself, not the final outcome.

Means the outcome or final result of a process or action. It is usually neutral and does not stress cause-and-effect as strongly as *Folge* does.

Means the result or outcome, often a bit more formal/literary than *Ergebnis*. Usually neutral and close to *Folge*, but without a negative emphasis.
