All the courts and judges in a country or area that decide what the law means and how to use it.
Brugsmønster:
the judiciary of [a country/region]
Typisk fejl:
Learners often confuse "judiciary" (a noun meaning the system of courts and judges) with "judicial" (an adjective, as in "judicial decision" or "judicial system"). Another mistake is using it without a determiner in contexts where English usually needs one; we normally say "the judiciary" when talking about the institution in a specific country.
