The word advised originates from the Middle English term avised or avisid, which was derived from the Old French word aviser. In turn, aviser was formed from the Vulgar Latin word advisare, meaning to consider. Ultimately, the Latin term ad-, denoting to or towards, combined with the verb visare, meaning to see or to examine, gave rise to the Old French and Middle English variations, eventually leading to the modern term advised.
