advice vs advise


Advice (n) - On advice of my CA, I filed taxes.

Advise (v) - CA advised me to file taxes regularly.


Difference: 1st is noun, other is verb. You can't use ' adviced'. That's wrong, 'advised' is correct.

These 2 are very confusing words. Often in official letters, essays they are used wrongly.



How to remember Advice is noun, other 1 verb?


A way to remember is "Vice" meaning 'immoral or wicked behavior' is always noun. or

"Vice-President" is always an individual and a noun, so you can remember it like this also. So I give my 'advice' to you that you always remember what I 'advised' you.
