A quick definition of divortium:

Divortium means divorce in Latin. In Roman law, it was a way to end a marriage without any specific reason. In Eccles. law, it could mean two things: (1) a separation of spouses, similar to a judicial separation, and (2) a declaration that the marriage was never valid. This word is still used for the second meaning, even though it is different from divorce. In the past, people who wanted to end their marriage sometimes pretended that there was a problem with their family history to get a declaration of nullity.

A more thorough explanation:

Divortium

Divortium is a Latin word that means divorce. In Roman law, it refers to the legal separation of a married couple. In Eccles. law, it can also mean a decree that allows spouses to separate or declares their marriage invalid.

  • John and Mary decided to get a divortium because they couldn't get along anymore.
  • The church granted a divortium to Peter and Sarah, allowing them to separate and live apart.

These examples illustrate how divortium can refer to both a legal separation and a decree that ends a marriage.
