official court or judging body
An official group of people with power to listen to a case and decide what is right by law or rules.
תבנית שימוש:
a tribunal [hears/decides] [a case/dispute]
טעות נפוצה:
Learners sometimes confuse 'tribunal' with 'trial'. A 'trial' is the process of judging a case, while a 'tribunal' is the body or court that judges the case. Learners may also overuse 'tribunal' where 'court' is more natural; in general contexts, 'court' is more common, and 'tribunal' is often used for special or lower-level bodies (e.g., employment tribunal).
מילים נרדפות

|
panel (Emphasizes a small group of decision-makers; not always legal, while a 'tribunal' is usually an official legal or quasi-legal body.)
הפכים
defendant (In a legal process, the defendant is the person being judged, while the tribunal is the official body that judges and decides.)

panel that judges or evaluates
An official group of people who look at a problem or a person’s actions and decide what should happen, but not as part of a normal court.
תבנית שימוש:
a tribunal [assesses/reviews] [someone/something]
טעות נפוצה:
Learners may think 'tribunal' is used only for legal courts. In fact, it is also used for official groups inside universities, companies, or organizations that judge serious problems or complaints. Another confusion is using 'board' or 'committee' when the focus is specifically on judging wrongdoing; in those cases, 'tribunal' can be more precise.
