UK: ˌdʒʌdʒˈmen.təl | US: ˌdʒʌdʒˈmen.t̬əl
adj. tending to make harsh or critical judgments about others
adj. relating to or involving the act of judging
The word "judgmental" combines "judgment" (from Old French jugement, meaning "legal decision" or "opinion") with the suffix "-al" (from Latin -alis, forming adjectives). "Judgment" itself derives from Latin judicium (trial, decision), rooted in judex (judge). Over time, "judgmental" evolved to describe a tendency to form critical opinions, reflecting the evaluative nature of its root.
