Why foreign courts call judges "your honor", and ...

Judges are called "Your Honor" in court, mainly in America. This title is based on historical reasons. The judicial power of judges is endowed by the people. A judge is just an unprivileged profession and is honored as "Your Honor".

The image of American judges is very noble and sacred in the eyes of many ordinary people. In American courts, the original defendant and lawyers of both sides call the judge "Your Honor", and the popular translation is "your honor". Honor means: dignity, nobility, integrity, honor, loftiness, dignity and credit. So far, the word "your honor" has almost become a special word for judges' profession.

Adults and your majesty actually use the same words. Generally speaking, when talking to a queen or king, you should say Your Majesty, and when talking to a third party, you should say Your Majesty or Your Majesty. Majestic means "supreme authority" and "kingship", that is, greatness, while your majesty actually refers to you, who holds the kingship, that is, "you hold the kingship", and her/his majesty refers to her/him, who holds the kingship, which is a kind of address for the queen/king. So theoretically, only the queen or the king can call himself your majesty. In the same way, so is honor.
