concubine

Read a random definition: carried interest

A quick definition of concubine:

A concubine is a woman who lives with a man but is not married to him. She is like a wife, but without the official title. In the past, some men had more than one wife, and the concubine was like a secondary wife who had fewer rights. She had to do everything a wife did, but she didn't have the same power in the family. She also didn't have the same legal protections, like the right to inherit from her husband or to get a share of his property if they separated.

A more thorough explanation:

A concubine is a woman who lives with a man as if they were married, but without actually being married. This term is old-fashioned and not commonly used today.

In ancient times, wealthy men often had concubines in addition to their wives. These women were not considered equal to the wives and did not have the same rights or privileges.

Some cultures still practice polygamy, where a man can have multiple wives and concubines. In these situations, the concubines are usually considered inferior to the wives and have fewer rights.

Overall, a concubine is a woman who lives with a man as if they were married, but without the legal or social recognition of marriage.
