EN: prioress
The female counterpart of the priyor. She's the head nun in charge, the 'Mother Superior' you see in movies like 'Sister Act'. She runs the convent, makes the rules, and keeps everything in order. Again, a term you're more likely to read in Noli Me Tángere than hear in a TikTok video.
From Spanish 'priora' (prioress).
The female equivalent of 'priyor'. Used in religious and historical contexts.
