There no general rule for noun > verb in English. Moreover, often there is more than one verb based on the same noun. In a few cases the same word can function as both a noun and a verb, as for example: * help * call * name * change (in sense of alter) It is much more common for the word to change, for example: * belief - believe (minor change) * writing - write (also minor) * descrption - describe * assistance - assist * argument - argue * protection - protect It might be more useful to ask for verb > noun, as generally native speakers feel intuitively that the verb form is more basic.
