Term Definition
Polygyny

Anthropological term, Polygyny refers to a man marrying more than one wife. The easy way to quickly recall the correct spelling and pronunciation of this term, polygyny, is by realizing that the "gyn" (of "-gyny") comes from the same root-word as found in the name of medical fields which specifically specialize in womens health, "GYNocology" and "ob/GYN" (obstetrics/GYNocology). When most people use the more neutral term, "polygamy", they are usually only meaning this term here, i.e., polygyny.
