From a legal point of view, any person who meets the conditions set by law or custom to contract a marriage is marriageable ¹, and the marriageable population ² is made up of such persons; the non-marriageable population ³ consists of those who are not free to do so by law or custom. The marriage market ⁴, the marriageable circle ^5★ or group of persons ^5★ among whom mate selection ⁶ takes place however, does not include all marriageable persons; candidates to marriage ⁷ include only those who are not excluded, at least temporarily, by reasons of health or other circumstances from the marriage market. Widowed or divorced persons may contract a new marriage; there is thus a distinction between a first marriage ⁸ and a marriage of higher order, or remarriage ⁹. Because the order of marriage ¹⁰ may differ for the two spouses, the term "first marriage" is ambiguous unless specified as referring to groom (501-6*) or to bride (501-7*) or to both parties; unless otherwise specified, it refers to a marriage between a bachelor (515-3) and a spinster (515-4).
