Read a random definition: specific objection

A quick definition of mancipatory will:

A mancipatory will is a legal document that tells people what to do with someone's things after they die. It's like a wish or a choice that the person writes down. In ancient Rome, it had to be sealed by seven witnesses and given to a special person. There are many different types of wills, like ones that are handwritten, ones that are spoken out loud, and ones that only work if something specific happens. Some wills are only for married people, and some are for soldiers or sailors. A lost will is one that can't be found, but people can still try to figure out what it said. A mutual will is when two people make almost the same will.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A type of will used in Roman law that required seven witnesses and was submitted to the praetor.

Example: In ancient Rome, a mancipatory will was a formal document that a person used to direct how their estate would be distributed after their death. It had to be signed by the testator and seven witnesses and then submitted to the praetor.
