Croatian Matrimonial Terminology
Mile Mamić
Abstract
Croatian equivalents for the Latin marilus 'husband', uxor 'wife' and coniux 'spouse' are discussed.
Since Croatian supplies a wealth of such terms, with fairly recent additions (such as Supružnici), the author has attempted to evaluate these items linguistically and terminologically and
to enhance the awareness of them. This should facilitate the selection of the best among them
for Croatian legislative needs, while the rest would be left to general language use.
