jueza
/ˈxweθa/ · B2 · noun · f
judge
⚖️👩 jueza = juez (judge) + -a, the feminine ending, so a judge's female counterpart
Spanish juez means judge, and the feminine -a gives jueza. Sounds like HWEH-tha. Traditionally it meant a judge's wife; today it usually means a female judge. Same root as Latin iudex, as in judiciary.
