Ratu

Ratu is a title used by Fijians of chiefly rank. An equivalent title, Adi (pronounced [ˈandʒi]), is used by females of chiefly rank. In the Malay language, the title Ratu is also the traditional honorific title to refer to the ruler (king or queen) in Javanese culture. Thus in Java, a royal palace is called "keraton", constructed from the circumfix ke- -an and Ratu, to describe the residence of the Ratu.
