An archaic term meaning to advocate for or speak in support of; to plead in favor of.
From Latin advocare, combining ad- (to) + vocare (to call). It's a back-formation or shortened form related to 'advocate,' used in older English to mean the act of calling upon or defending.
Advoke is so rare that it almost seems like a mistake—but it's actually evidence of how English speakers tried different versions of Latin roots, and most got eliminated, leaving only 'advocate' as the survivor.
