Usage note: inform somebody (jargon)

The use of advise to mean "tell somebody about something" is regarded as jargon and best avoided in formal usage: Please advise us of your new address; I will advise them of the new time of the meeting. JMGN (talk) 20:47, 25 February 2023 (UTC)Reply

This seems like a fairly arbitrary prescriptivist hang-up, I see this usage in formal contexts frequently and wouldn't think twice about it personally. —Al-Muqanna المقنع (talk) 18:53, 4 March 2023 (UTC)Reply
