I agree with you the word 'advices' is old-fashioned.
Many thanks.
I said maybe. But not wrong, no, not by a long chalk.
And it can be poetic too:
Ah, gentle dames! it gars me greet,
To think how mony counsels sweet,
How mony lengthen'd, sage advices,
The husband frae the wife despises!
Hi Mc Tag
No wonder 'advices' is used. People still think of the good old days.

That would be kissing and telling, cousin.
While I'm in a mood, it's so because the "International Education and Training Society" blurb is written by a student whose second language is English doncha know.

I'm pretty sure this is misleading. I would have confidence in any publication coming from Cambridge University, at least insofar as the proper use of English is concerned.
I agree with you, Mc Tag.
