Quadrigius commented on the word adverting
The definition given by Wordnik 'Present participle of advert.' is hardly helpful. Webster's 1828 dictionary defines it as: attending to, regarding, observing, which is certainly what it meant in the context of what I was reading. It is most closely linked to advertence and the Wordnik definitions for this tie up with Webster's.
