I apologize in advance. I just couldn't resist commenting.

It's just too bad no one gave the appropriate reply. Would have helped me too.

I don't get it. Two choices were given: 'advance' or 'advanced'.

You get a reply: Happy Birthday in advance. Where did this come from? Is this the correct answer? Or the safe one? Are you saying neither is correct?

What people get here is how natives would provide the same information/make the same statement/ask the same question in natural language.

If someone proposes two (or more) alternatives and then three people all provide the same alternative, which is neither of the original two, you can safel

Hello,

I am confused too...

Just to go around it...I write "Happy birthday ***, in advance."

I believe, any way we write it, our friend will appreciate the thought...

I hope this helps...

Just by reading the comments, it seems to be "Advance" instead of "Advanced".

It's not that hard of a question people; She was asking if it's either Advance without the "D" in the end -OR- Advanced with the "D" in the end.

You have probably figured it
