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.
