10.56 · Kinship Terms · Kinship Relations Based upon Marriage
bridegroom a man who is about to be married or has just been married In a number of languages a term for bridegroom must indicate explicitly whether the marriage is about to take place or has just taken place. Therefore, one may have to employ some such phrase as ‘a man who is going to be married soon’ or ‘a man who has just been married.’ A corresponding type of expression may be required for ‘bride’ (see 10.57).
