1) I have a right to.../ I have the right to..., I took an oath/ I took the oath.
I have noticed that for many people it doesn't make a difference whether they use the definite article or not in the two examples I just gave you. Let's say that I've started my studies at the faculty of medicine and all freshmen had to take part in a ceremony, touch a sceptre and repeat a certain line. Would I then say: 'take an oath' or 'take the oath'?
2) You need to have a notarial act/ notarial writing/ a notarial document. Which one can be used if I'm talking about a document that was drawn up by a notary?
Thank you.
