Slave-girl is the closest English has to a feminine form of the word slave. Since 'slave-girl' can be applied to women who are no longer literally girls, it is part of the language's wider habit of using the words girl and boy to indicate lower status.
Kajira is an invented equivalent word, used in John Norman's Gor books.
