	The term "wife" seems to be a close term to ''[[bride]]'', the latter is a female participant in a ''[[wedding]] ceremony'', while a wife is a married woman after the wedding, during her marriage. Her partner, if male, was known as the ''[[bridegroom]]'' during the wedding, and within the marriage is called her ''[[husband]]''. Traditionally, the bride or her family may have brought her husband a ''[[dowry]]'', or the husband or his family may have needed to pay a ''[[bride price]]'' to the family of his bride, or both were exchanged between the families; the dowry not only supported the establishment of a household, but also served as a condition that if the husband committed grave offenses upon his wife, the dowry had to be returned to the wife or her family; for the time of the marriage, they were made [[inalienable]] by the husband.<~~ref~~>~~Britannica 2005, ''dowry''~~</~~ref~~> A former wife whose spouse is deceased is a ''[[widow]]'', and may be left with a ''[[dower]]'' (often a third or a half of his [[Estate (law)\|estate]]) to support her as ''[[dowager]]''.

	Wife refers especially to the institutionalized form in relation to the spouse and offspring, unlike [[mother]], a term that puts a woman into the context of her children. Also compare the similar sounding ''[[midwife]]'', a person assisting in childbirth ("Mother midnight" emphasizes to a midwife's power over life and death).<sup>[]</sup> In some societies, especially historically, a ''[[concubine]]'' was a woman who was in an ongoing, usually matrimonially oriented relationship with a man who could not be married to her, often because of a difference in social status.
