Which single word means ‘a person who marries someone while still legally married to another person’?
APolygamist
BWidower
CMonogamist
DBigamist
Explanation
A ‘bigamist’ is a person who marries someone while already legally married to another person, an act that is illegal in most countries. This is distinct from a ‘polygamist,’ a person who has multiple spouses simultaneously in a system where such marriages are legally or culturally recognized, since bigamy specifically refers to the illegal act of a second, unrecognized marriage.
