=========================
His sage advice saved the day.
=========================
Correct
Incorrect

Answer 1

Correct is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

1. I tried incorrect and got it wrong.

2. The definition of Sage in OW is: (noun) an aromatic plant, used as an herb; (adj.) wisdom

So if his sage advice saved the day it would be using it correctly.

I think saying "His sage advice saved the day." is an odd way to use the word sage, but it's the correct answer to your question.

Hope I helped!!!

Have a great day:)

Answer 2

Incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason I believe it is incorrect because sage in the sense of wisdom does mean a person who gives advice and the words sage and advice juxtaposition to each other does not make sense.
