Fun linguistic fact: the Dutch word for "lawyer" is "advocaat" and that word shares the same etymological root as the English "advocate". Is that not perfect or what?

Bonus related fact: there's also a (delicious) brandy-based drink sold in 🇳🇱 called advocaat and one of the theories behind the name is that it was originally called advocatenborrel, or "lawyers' drink"
