Middle English avys
English advice
From Middle English avys, from Old French avis, rebracketed from the phrase ce m'est a vis (“I think”, “it seems to me”, literally “it is to my view”), where vis is from Latin vīsus (“vision, sight”). The unhistoric -d- was introduced during the 15th century due to influence from advise and ad-, see advance. Doublet of aviso. See vision, and compare avise, advise.
Mostly displaced native Old English rǣd (see modern rede).
