Park’s lawyer seeks to delay questioning

*newly appointed: 새로 임명된
*clash with: ~와 충돌하다
*embattled: 궁지에 몰린

[2] The president has selected Yoo Yeong-ha, a 55-year-old private attorney, to counter a growing list of allegations that she may have helped her confidante, Choi Soon-sil, create slush funds with corporate donations and meddle in state affairs. 

*counter: 대응하다
*slush fund: 비자금

*call: 요구
*adamant: 강경한, 고집스러운

[4] He also took issue with the prosecution’s unprecedented plan to quiz a sitting leader face-to-face, saying a written query was “appropriate in principle” but if a head-to-head meeting is necessary, it could be done in minimal time.

*take issue with: ~과 대립하다, 논쟁하다
*sitting leader/president: 현직 대통령
