Animum (in the poets and Livy also animos, rarely mentem) advertere; absol., or with adv. or ad aliquid, or alicui rei, to direct the mind, thoughts, or attention to a thing, to advert to, give attention to, attend to, to heed, observe, remark:
si voles advortere animum, Enn. ap. Var. L. L. 7, § 89 Müll. (Trag. v. 386 Vahl.): facete advortis animum tuum ad animum meum,
Plaut. Mil. 1, 1, 39:

id. ib. 3, 1, 169:
advertunt animos ad religionem,
Lucr. 3, 54:
monitis animos advertite nostris,
Ov. M. 15, 140:
animum etiam levissimis rebus adverterent,
Tac. A. 13, 49.—With ne, when the object of attention is expressed:
ut animum advertant, ne quos offendant,
Cic. Off. 2, 19, 68:
adverterent animos, ne quid novi tumultūs oriretur,
Liv. 4, 45.—
B.
Animum advertere, to observe a thing by directing the mind to it, to observe, to notice, to remark, to perceive (in the class. period contracted to animadvertere, q. v.).—Constr. with two accusatives, animum advertere aliquid (where aliquid may be regarded as depending on the prep. in comp., Roby, § 1118, or on animum advertere, considered as one idea, to observe), with acc. and inf., or rel. clause (the first mode of construction, most frequent with the pronouns id, hoc, illud, etc., is for the most part ante-class., and appears in Caes., Cic., and Sall. as an archaism):
et hoc animum advorte,

Sall. J. 93, 2. In Vitruv. once with hinc:
ut etiam possumus hinc animum advertere,
as we can hence perceive, Vitr. 10, 22, 262.—With the acc. and inf.:
postquam tantopere id vos velle animum advorteram,
Ter. Phorm. 5, 8, 16:
animum advertit magnas esse copiashostium instructas,
Caes. B. G. 5, 18: cum animum adverteret locum relictum esse, Auct. B. Alex. 31; ib. 46.—With the rel. clause: nunc quam rem vitio dent, quaeso, animum advortite, Ter. And. prol. 8: quid ille sperare possit, animum adverte, Dolab. ap. Cic. Fam. 9, 9:
quam multarum rerum ipse ignarus esset... animum advertit,
Liv. 24, 48. Sometimes advertere alone = animum advertere; so once in Cicero's letters: nam advertebatur Pompeii familiares assentiri Volcatio, Fam. 1, 1 (although here, as well as almost everywhere, the readings fluctuate between advertere and animadvertere; cf. Orell. ad h. l.; animadvertebatur, B. and K.). So Verg. in the imp.:
qua ratione quod instat, Confieri possit, paucis, adverte, docebo,
attend! Verg. A. 4, 115.—In the histt., esp. Tac. and Pliny, more frequently:
donec advertit Tiberius,
Tac. A. 4, 54:
Zenobiam advertere pastores,
id. ib. 12, 51:
advertere quosdam cultu externo in sedibus senatorum,

hirudo quam sanguisugam appellari adverto,
Plin. 8, 10, 10, § 29:

id. 2, 67, 67, § 168. Still more rarely, advertere animo:
animis advertite vestris,

si voles advortere animum, Enn. ap. Var. L. L. 7, § 89 Müll. (Trag. v. 386 Vahl.): facete advortis animum tuum ad animum meum,
Plaut. Mil. 1, 1, 39:

ut animum advertant, ne quos offendant,
Cic. Off. 2, 19, 68:
adverterent animos, ne quid novi tumultūs oriretur,
Liv. 4, 45.—
B.
Animum advertere, to observe a thing by directing the mind to it, to observe, to notice, to remark, to perceive (in the class. period contracted to animadvertere, q. v.).—Constr. with two accusatives, animum advertere aliquid (where aliquid may be regarded as depending on the prep. in comp., Roby, § 1118, or on animum advertere, considered as one idea, to observe), with acc. and inf., or rel. clause (the first mode of construction, most frequent with the pronouns id, hoc, illud, etc., is for the most part ante-class., and appears in Caes., Cic., and Sall. as an archaism):

quam multarum rerum ipse ignarus esset... animum advertit,
Liv. 24, 48. Sometimes advertere alone = animum advertere; so once in Cicero's letters: nam advertebatur Pompeii familiares assentiri Volcatio, Fam. 1, 1 (although here, as well as almost everywhere, the readings fluctuate between advertere and animadvertere; cf. Orell. ad h. l.; animadvertebatur, B. and K.). So Verg. in the imp.:
qua ratione quod instat, Confieri possit, paucis, adverte, docebo,

donec advertit Tiberius,

animis advertite vestris,
Verg. A. 2, 712:
hanc scientiam ad nostros pervenisse animo adverto,
Plin. 25, 2, 3, § 5; cf. Drak. ad Liv. 4, 27, 8.—
C.
To draw or turn something, esp. the attention of another, to or upon one's self (in the histt.):
gemitus ac planctus militum aures oraque advertere,
Tac. A. 1, 41:
octo aquilae imperatorem advertere,
id. ib. 2, 17: recentia veteraque odia advertit, drew them on himself, id. ib. 4, 21 al.—
D.
To call the attention of one to a definite act, i. e. to admonish of it, to urge to it (cf. II. A.):
non docet admonitio, sed advertit,
i. e. directs attention, Sen. Ep. 94:
advertit ea res Vespasiani animum, ut, etc.,
Tac. H. 3, 48.—
E.
Advertere in aliquem, for the more usual animadvertere in aliquem, to attend to one, i. e. to punish one (only in Tac.):
in P. Marcium consules more prisco advertere,
Tac. A. 2, 32:
ut in reliquos Sejani liberos adverteretur,

in front, Caes. B. G. 5, 35; cf. Cic. Verr. 2, 5, 1; Liv. 21, 7 fin. al.; hence, vulnus adversum, a wound in front (on the contr., vulnus aversum, a wound in the back), Cic. Har. Resp. 19:

si voles advortere animum, Enn. ap. Var. L. L. 7, § 89 Müll. (Trag. v. 386 Vahl.): facete advortis animum tuum ad animum meum,
Plaut. Mil. 1, 1, 39:

ut animum advertant, ne quos offendant,
Cic. Off. 2, 19, 68:
adverterent animos, ne quid novi tumultūs oriretur,
Liv. 4, 45.—
B.
Animum advertere, to observe a thing by directing the mind to it, to observe, to notice, to remark, to perceive (in the class. period contracted to animadvertere, q. v.).—Constr. with two accusatives, animum advertere aliquid (where aliquid may be regarded as depending on the prep. in comp., Roby, § 1118, or on animum advertere, considered as one idea, to observe), with acc. and inf., or rel. clause (the first mode of construction, most frequent with the pronouns id, hoc, illud, etc., is for the most part ante-class., and appears in Caes., Cic., and Sall. as an archaism):
et hoc animum advorte,
Plaut. Ps. 1, 3, 43:

animum advertit magnas esse copiashostium instructas,
Caes. B. G. 5, 18: cum animum adverteret locum relictum esse, Auct. B. Alex. 31; ib. 46.—With the rel. clause: nunc quam rem vitio dent, quaeso, animum advortite, Ter. And. prol. 8: quid ille sperare possit, animum adverte, Dolab. ap. Cic. Fam. 9, 9:
quam multarum rerum ipse ignarus esset... animum advertit,
Liv. 24, 48. Sometimes advertere alone = animum advertere; so once in Cicero's letters: nam advertebatur Pompeii familiares assentiri Volcatio, Fam. 1, 1 (although here, as well as almost everywhere, the readings fluctuate between advertere and animadvertere; cf. Orell. ad h. l.; animadvertebatur, B. and K.). So Verg. in the imp.:
qua ratione quod instat, Confieri possit, paucis, adverte, docebo,
attend! Verg. A. 4, 115.—In the histt., esp. Tac. and Pliny, more frequently:
donec advertit Tiberius,

animis advertite vestris,
Verg. A. 2, 712:
hanc scientiam ad nostros pervenisse animo adverto,
Plin. 25, 2, 3, § 5; cf. Drak. ad Liv. 4, 27, 8.—
C.
To draw or turn something, esp. the attention of another, to or upon one's self (in the histt.):
gemitus ac planctus militum aures oraque advertere,
Tac. A. 1, 41:
octo aquilae imperatorem advertere,
id. ib. 2, 17: recentia veteraque odia advertit, drew them on himself, id. ib. 4, 21 al.—
D.
To call the attention of one to a definite act, i. e. to admonish of it, to urge to it (cf. II. A.):
non docet admonitio, sed advertit,
i. e. directs attention, Sen. Ep. 94:
advertit ea res Vespasiani animum, ut, etc.,
Tac. H. 3, 48.—
E.
Advertere in aliquem, for the more usual animadvertere in aliquem, to attend to one, i. e. to punish one (only in Tac.):
in P. Marcium consules more prisco advertere,
Tac. A. 2, 32:
ut in reliquos Sejani liberos adverteretur,
id. ib. 5, 9 (cf. id. Germ. 7, 3: animadvertere).—Hence,
