The Macmillan dictionary has redefined the word “marriage” to include same-sex couples, and may change its definition of “husband” and “wife”.
The dictionary’s definition of the institution is now, “the relationship between two people who are husband and wife, or a similar relationship between people of the same sex”.
Its editor-in-chief said the organisation was monitoring changes to the use of “husband” and “wife” to see if it would change those words as well.
