Composition

ne (relation/bond) + zi (mutual/coupling event) + re (recurrence) = bond-of-recurring-coupling = the relational bond defined by a recurring mutual coupling event. A ne (bond) characterized by zi-re (recurring coupling): a spouse is the person to whom one is bonded through this type of recurring mutual joining.

Definition

spouse; bonded coupling partner; the person with whom one is in a recurring mutual coupling bond. The relational role of one's partner in an established and recognized coupling bond. Greek gunē (woman/wife) and anēr (man/husband) in their spousal senses.

Notes

Tonesu is sex-neutral throughout the kinship vocabulary; ne-zi-re is the role without biological sex specification. The biological sex of either party, if relevant, is expressed via zi-zo-go (W107) and zi-zo-du (W108) as needed. ne-zi-re-ze = their spouse (genitive suffix on the relational role). Key derivatives: ne-zi-re-de = bond-of-recurring-coupling + dissolution = divorcing si-fe-ne-de = bounded-signal-of-bond-dissolution = divorce certificate Opening of Matthew 5:31–32: "anyone who divorces his wife" = lo-zo-li lo-ne-zi-re-ze no-ne ka = person who deliberately-removes the bond with their spouse.
