consulnoun
lãnh sự
/ˈkɒnsl//ˈkɑːnsl/The word "consul" has its origins in ancient Rome. In Roman politics, a consul was one of the highest officials in the republic, ranking just below the Senate. The consulship was a prestigious office that was responsible for overseeing the daily operations of the government, acting as the chief executive, and commanding the Roman army. The Latin word "consul" is derived from the verb "consulere," which means "to consult" or "to advise." This reflects the consuls' role as advisors to the Senate and the Roman people. Over time, the term "consul" evolved to refer to various types of representatives or diplomats, such as the French Consul, who represents the government of France abroad. Today, the term is still used in international diplomacy, law, and business, often referring to a high-ranking official or representative.
