- 1司法部門；司法體系（三權裡的司法；不是陪審團）
The judiciary is all the judges of a country, seen as one body — and, in countries that split government into parts, that body is one of those parts, beside the people who make laws and the people who run the government day to day. So “an independent judiciary” means the judges are not the president’s or the party’s staff; they can say no. You can also use judiciary as an adjective in a few set phrases (a judiciary committee), but the noun is the main use. It is the normal modern word in news and . is older and rarer. Though actually, sometimes think judiciary means “the jury.” A jury is ordinary people in one trial. The judiciary is the professional judges as a whole.
