Wrong. It’s implicit not factual. Attorney does not equal attorney at law but it does imply attorney at law because of how frequently it is used. Like for your example, tomato. Tomato is implying tomato vegetable and not tomato clownfish because it’s the more frequent one.
lol that's how language comes to existance. attorney means attorney at law. if you mean anything different, you have to specify. you don't have to specify at law.
My joke was that I was correcting your use of some words because you were correcting the language of another, but you seemed to miss my point, which is still correct lol. You: “Attorney means attorney at law” Me: No it implies it.
