Direction of calquing Greek[edit]
This page claims that Latin advocatus is a calque of Greek parakletos, but w:paraclete has a source claiming that parakletos is the calque and advocatus is the older term, that is, Greek invented the term to translate the imperial Roman concept. Which direction is correct? 24.38.253.81 21:54, 12 January 2024 (UTC)
