Explanation:
Hola Myriam,
No sé si entiendo bien el contexto de esta frase, pero me da la sensación que hace referencia a la pareja de hecho y que en este caso es la mujer.

¡Mucha suerte!

neutral  María Perales: Las parejas de hecho se registran en la administración pública. Entiendo por lo que he leído que este tipo de pareja no se registra en ningún organismo.

Concubina


Explanation:
Me hubiera gustado saber a cuál país va el documento, pues en algunos países se usa la palabra Concubina (mujer que convive con un hombre sin estar casados entre sí) término ampliamente usado en textos legales de algunos países e incluso leyes.

Podemos ver su equivalente en ingles en el término Co-habiting, hay bastante discusión en comparación con el otro termino common-law marriage, el cual no debería ser usado en textos legales, sino mas bien Co-habiting.

Espero sirva de ayuda.
