One-word substitution
One-word substitution, asked very often: the practice of having one husband or wife at a time is monogamy; more than one polygamy (a man with several wives polygyny, a woman with several husbands polyandry); a person who marries again while still married commits bigamy; a person who never marries is a celibate or bachelor (woman, spinster, old-fashioned).
यह बहुत पूछा जाता है: एक समय में एक पति या पत्नी रखने की प्रथा monogamy (एकविवाह); एक से अधिक polygamy (पुरुष की कई पत्नियाँ polygyny, स्त्री के कई पति polyandry); विवाहित रहते दोबारा विवाह करना bigamy (द्विविवाह); कभी विवाह न करने वाला celibate या bachelor (स्त्री, spinster, पुराना)।
