Thanks for your advise.
Hi swami,
Please check the difference between advise and advice.

Hi Torsten,
Here you Go…
Advise:To recommend; suggest: advised patience.,
For Ex:
He advised with her friends.
Advice: Recommendation.
For Ex:
“The man was in such deep distress,”
Said Tom, “that I could do no less
Than give him good advice.” Said Jim:
“If less could have been done for him
I know you well enough, my son,
To know that’s what you would have done.”
Please tell me the difference.
‘Advis e’ is the verb and ‘advic e’ is the noun.

Hi,
Please advise.
The above one is correct or wrong.
‘Advis e’ is correct here, since it’s a verb.
But, ‘Let me give you a piece of advic e’ (noun).
