privilegiado
/pɾibileˈxjado/ · B2 · adj
privileged
👑 privilegiado = privi- (private) + lege (law): having one's own special law
From Latin privilegium, 'a law for one person' (privus 'private' + lex 'law'). A privileged person has rules or benefits that others don't. Spanish keeps the root nearly intact: privilegio → privilegiado.
