00 Tip is the most informal and the lightest in content. Similar in meaning to suggestion, which is more formal. 02br
02br
00 Advice is the most substantial, perhaps. 040pid48951

0Hi,02br
02br
00I guess "tip" is the most informal and general of the three. if you think of possible uses, you can talk about "tips to get a good tan", "tips to look great" and that kind of magazine stuff 05002br
02br
00"suggestion" is closer to "idea, proposition", for instance "going to London was her suggestion"02br
