How to use "Peeress" in context?
The word "peereess" comes from the Old English word "pæres" meaning "the head of a household," and it was first used in Anglo-Saxon times to describe the woman who ruled a household. The peereess was typically the wife of the head of the household, and she had authority over all the people living in that household. She was in charge of all the financial matters, the daily affairs of the household, and the prevention of harm to the members of the household. If a conflict arose, the peereess had the final say.
