Here is some essential language to talk about the IELTS Speaking topic of giving and getting advice
To advise (v.)
Advice (n.) Uncountable noun
He gave me some advice
She gave me a good piece of advice
He gave me a bit of advice
Other commonly mistaken words that are uncountable but can take ‘a piece of’ to make them countable are…
News / information / advice
Advisable (adj.)
It’s not very advisable to watch too much TV
Giving advice
We can say:
He advised me to go
He recommended me to go
He recommended/suggested going
He recommended/suggested that I go
I recommended/suggested that she go
Notice in this last case we use Subject + subjunctive. This is why we say “she go” instead of the usual “she goes”.
Collocations
A bit of advice
A friendly piece of advice
Constructive advice = positive / helpful
Unsolicited advice = don’t ask for
Sensible advice = logical / useful
To heed advice = to follow advice or take advice
To ignore advice
