The verb form (say Ad-vo-kate) means to fight, advise, or take up for someone. The noun form (say Ad-vuh-cut) is someone who assists or fights for another, such as an attorney or a human rights activist.

Examples:

Verb: "I don't advocate that you take that many aspirins."

Noun: "The hospital patient called a patient advocate to fight for their right to be discharged."
