'LEEM-peh-rah-TREE-tcheh' is how you pronounce 'l'imperatrice.'

The feminine singular definite article 'l'* means 'the.' The feminine noun 'imperatrice' means 'empress.' The feminine singular indefinite article 'una' combined with 'imperatrice' means 'an empress' or 'one empress.'

*The feminine singular definite article actually is 'la.'But the vowel 'a' drops before a noun that begins with a vowel. The temporary nature of that drop is indicated by an apostrophe: 'l'imperatrice.'
