सांस्कृतिक पृष्ठभूमि
Spaniards are often very direct. Giving advice is seen as a sign of honesty and 'confianza'. In Mexico, advice is often softened with diminutives to sound less intrusive. Argentines are known for being very opinionated and helpful; giving advice is a national pastime. Even in informal advice, Colombians might use 'usted' to show a mix of closeness and respect.

Always remember to say WHO you are giving advice to (me, te, le...).
Don't say 'Hacer'
Never say 'hacer un consejo'. It's a dead giveaway that you're translating from English.
