Polygamy (from Late Greek πολυγαμία, polygamía, "state of marriage to many spouses") is the practice of marrying multiple spouses. When a man is married to more than one wife at a time, sociologists call this polygyny. When a woman is married to more than one husband at a time, it is called polyandry.

Polygamy is the act of marrying multiple spouses, that means having more than one husband or wife at the same time.
The term is the opposite of monogamy which is the more common practice of having just one spouse at any given moment.
