POPEYE
(OP)
"I stands all I can stands, I can't stands no more."
Popeye
Me too. I have endured the flagrant mis-use of 'advi C e' and 'advi S e' for a long time on this web-site.
Advice is a noun. It does not indicate action. It is an object.
Advise is a verb. It does indicate action. A person may be advised, but cannot be 'adviced'.
Please pay attention to this, and try to use the words correctly. I will suffer less. Thank you.

RE: POPEYE
Misuse or mis-use can be used as a verb with no fear of misuse but I'm not sure that the use of mis-use as a noun is not a misuse.
Now I'm conf-used.

You better tell Popeye. That's what I heard him say.
