Quite difficult!

Can you accept "hebraic" for the 3rd one? I must admit I tried many words linked to this but not the two most obvious ones...

"Don" is not really a word for a Spanish lord, at least in Spanish. It is an honorific, more or less equivalent to "Mister", though it can only be used with first names (e.g. Don Juan or Don Juan Tenorio, but not Don Tenorio). You don't use it just for lords, you use it for anybody in a formal context.
