5 -council o counsel?-
Nota d'usoQueste due parole vengono a volte confuse perché si pronunciano allo stesso modo. Council indica un corpo elettivo o un comitato esecutivo che ha autorità su una città, un gruppo di persone, ecc.: the County Council, il Consiglio della Contea; the Council for National Academic Awards, il Consiglio per i Premi accademici nazionali. Il sostantivo counsel significa “parere, consulenza” e si usa spesso in espressioni come to take counsel o to hold counsel: The ministers took counsel with their advisers, i ministri chiesero un parere ai loro consulenti. Nel linguaggio legale, counsel è sinonimo di barrister, avvocato patrocinante: defending counsel, avvocato della difesa. Il membro di un consiglio si indica con il sostantivo councillor. Per indicare, invece, un “consulente” nel senso di colui che dà pareri e consigli (soprattutto di tipo personale o sentimentale) si usa la parola counsellor, per esempio a marriage counsellor, un consulente matrimoniale; in ambito professionale, però, si preferisce usare la parola adviser o advisor: a financial adviser, un consulente finanziario. -
