advertisev. Origin: A borrowing from French. Etymons: French avertiss-, avertir. Etymology: < Anglo-Norman and Middle French avertiss-, advertiss-, lengthened stem of avertir, advertir advert v. From an early date the ending was frequently either apprehended as or assimilated to -ize suffix. The formation of the verb was probably largely due to the contemporaneous existence of advertisement n., since other French verbs which reflect Latin prefixed verbs in -vertere , e.g. convertir , divertir , pervertir , were borrowed into English in their simple stem form, giving convert v., divert v., pervert v., etc. The verb shows semantic overlap with advert v., but differs from it in that its senses are chiefly causative, which reflects a prominent strand of the semantic development of French avertir . Sense 4, which is unparalleled in French, is probably largely after the corresponding uses of advertisement n. and advertising n.In sense 2b after Middle French avertir (1155 in Old French in this sense), used reflexively. With the γ. forms compare -ish suffix2. The position of stress varied in early use. Pronunciations with stress either on the second or the third syllable are found in 16th- and 17th-cent. sources; in the 18th cent., pronouncing dictionaries generally indicate stress on the third syllable. This pronunciation with stress on the final syllable predominates in British pronouncing dictionaries until the mid to late 19th cent., although Smart (1857 and later editions) already records the now universal first-syllable stress, which N.E.D. (1884) still considered a ‘tendency (in commercial usage, at least)’. In U.S. usage, both Worcester (1860) and Webster (1864) similarly record the first-syllable stress, albeit as an alternative to final-syllable stress. The shift to first-syllable stress is apparently by analogy with other verbs in -ize suffix. 1. 1426 in H.
