Things to
remember about asking for and giving advice:
1. "Advise" is a verb.
Example: "I advise you to learn English. You will undoubtedly need it in your higher studies"
Example: "I advise you to learn English. You will undoubtedly need it in your higher studies"
2. "Advice" is a noun.
Example: "My father gave me this piece of advice
when I was young: never give up"
3. "Ought to" has nearly the same meaning
as "should". The only difference is that "ought to" refers to a moral or
external obligation but should is more of an advice.
Examples:
1. "You ought to stop
smoking.
2. "You should
stop smoking."
4. "You'd better" is the short form of
"you had better"
Example: "You'd better see a doctor!" = "You had better see the doctor"
Example: "You'd better see a doctor!" = "You had better see the doctor"
