the Inns of Court
/ði ˌɪnz əv ˈkɔːt/
/ði ˌɪnz əv ˈkɔːrt/
- four institutions in central London, established in the Middle Ages, of which all barristers are members and at which students of law are trained. They consist of Gray's Inn, Lincoln's Inn, the Inner Temple and the Middle Temple. It is thought that they began as hostels for people studying common law during the Middle Ages, when it was not possible to study the subject at universities. The equivalent institution in Scotland is the Faculty of Advocates.
法院旅馆：位于伦敦市中心的四个机构，成立于中世纪，所有大律师都是该机构的成员，法学专业的学生也受到培训。它们包括格雷旅馆，林肯旅馆，内殿和中殿。人们认为，它们起初是中世纪时期学习普通法的人们的旅馆，当时不可能在大学学习该学科。苏格兰的相应机构是辩护律师学院。
