女王 joō Queen

女王 is a queen, a woman who reigns as monarch. It is also the word for a king's wife, the queen consort, and for the queen in a deck of cards. Her Majesty the Queen is 女王陛下 (joō heika).

The Japanese word 女王 meaning "Queen" is composed of the kanji 女 (read jo) meaning "woman; female" and 王 (read ō) meaning "king; rule; magnate".
