Etymology: "Advertences" is the plural of "advertence", a noun meaning a warning about danger. Its root is the verb "advert", which in English has long meant to turn one's attention toward something, and the noun carries that sense of attention being drawn to a hazard. The word is rare in modern use, and the plural form appears when writers refer to several such warnings at once.

Synonyms: warnings, notifications, alerts
