Advise: from1297, auys, from O.Fr. avis ';opinion,'; from O.Fr. ce m'est à vis ';it seems to me,'; or from V.L. *mi est visum ';in my view,'; ult. from L. ad- ';to'; + visum, neut. pp. of videre ';to see'; (see vision). The unhistoric -d- was introduced in Eng. 15c., on model of L. words in ad-. Substitution of -c- for -s- is 18c., to preserve the breath sound and to distinguish from advise.


Advise: from visen, from O.Fr. aviser, from avis (see advice). The verb preserves the older spelling. Advisory ';weather warning'; first recorded 1931.
