Admonition
(gcide) | Admonition \Ad`mo*ni"tion\, n. [OE. amonicioun, OF. amonition,
F. admonition, fr. L. admonitio, fr. admonere. See
Admonish.]
Gentle or friendly reproof; counseling against a fault or
error; expression of authoritative advice; friendly caution
or warning.
[1913 Webster]
Syn: Admonition, Reprehension, Reproof.
Usage: Admonition is prospective, and relates to moral
delinquencies; its object is to prevent further
transgression. Reprehension and reproof are
retrospective, the former being milder than the
latter. A person of any age or station may be liable
to reprehension in case of wrong conduct; but reproof
is the act of a superior. It is authoritative
fault-finding or censure addressed to children or to
inferiors.
