Advice is a noun. It talks about something someone tells you to do, because they think it is the best course of action.

When we have a problem, and we don't know what to do, we ask someone for their advice. We ask them what they think is best for us to do

Let's look at some examples of the word advice.

Examples:

- You should talk to Laura. She always gives excellent advice and she always knows what to do.
