imparcial

impartial

adjective eem-par-SYAHL Rare

Also means

unbiased

Usage Note

Imparcial describes a judge, referee, or opinion that shows no favouritism. Unlike English 'impartial', it readily modifies a noun directly: un árbitro imparcial (an impartial referee). Its base word parcial means both 'biased' (partisan) and 'partial' (incomplete), so context matters.

Examples

"El juez fue completamente imparcial."

Natural Translation

The judge was completely impartial.
