"King" is an English equivalent of "rex."

The Latin word is a masculine noun. Latin has no definite articles ("the"). But "unus rex" means "a, one king."

The pronunciation is "wrecks"* in both the liturgical Latin of the Church and the classical Latin of the ancient Romans.

*The sound is that of the English verb "wrecks."

It means king. It's used when translating Latin as king or courtier. It may have different endings but the core means king or one of the kings courtiers. :)

Latin for "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews" is "Iesvs Nazarenvs Rex Iudaeorvm" and the acronym for this title is INRI. Latin uses the letter "I" instead of the English "J", and "V" instead of "U" (i.e., Jesus Nazarenus Rex Judaeorum). The English translation is then "Jesus of Nazareth, the King of the Jews."
