Nota bene is a Latin phrase meaning "Note Well," coming from notâre—to note.[1] It is in the singular imperative mood, instructing one individual to note well the matter at hand. (The pluralis form is notate bene.) In present day English, it is used to draw the attention of the reader to a certain (side) aspect or detail of the subject on hand, translating it as "pay attention" or "take notice". It is often written in the abbreviated form: N.B.

n.b. actually stands for an obscure latin phrase - perhaps nota bene or something similar. People use it to mean 'take note'

n.b. stands for a Latin phrase nota bene meaning "note well" or to draw attention to something of particular importance. I hope that helps!

NB means Nota Bene in Latin. It is the same theoritically as when someone write PS (post scriptum) at the bottom of a letter or of a text. It's just to add something you did not mention in the letter or in the text. It's an "add-on" if you want.

The litteral translation would be "note that" or "pay attention to". But now it is more "by the way i have something else to say"
