Why is the law stuff like this always two words?

These are called 'legal doublets' and we can once again blame the Normans.

Post 1066, the language of nobility was French, and the language of the working class was English.

Since both English and French speakers needed to understand legal matters, a word from each language was often used to aid understanding: (right arrow emoji)

'breaking and entering' breaking = English entering = French

'will and testament' will = English testament = French

Legal doublets later were formed using only one language but kept the legal-sounding two-word convention:

'cease and desist' cease = French desist = French

'to have and to hold' to have = English to hold = English

This is also one of the reasons we have both 'attorney' and 'lawyer' to mean the same thing.

attorney = French lawyer = English

We hope you didn't find this thread arbitrary and capricious. /End IDs]

it doesn't matter which country we're talking about here, if someone from any country in the world says "oh where i am from there is simply no racism", you not only shouldn't believe them, but you should actually never take them seriously about anything ever again.
