EN: the legal profession, law (as a field)
This is what you call the entire world of lawyers, law schools, and courtrooms. It's the field your parents push you into if you're good at arguing. 'Nag-aaral siya ng abogasya' means they're on the long, difficult, but prestigious path to becoming 'Atty.'
From Spanish 'abogacía' (the legal profession, advocacy).
This is the modern, standard term for the law profession, distinct from the archaic and negative 'abogasia'.
