polygamy
This term describes a social or religious structure centered on multiple concurrent spouses. It carries a neutral descriptive tone in anthropological or legal contexts, though it often acquires a judgmental or controversial connotation in Western legal and cultural discourses where monogamy is the mandated norm.
As an abstract noun referring to a practice or custom, the word is uncountable. It describes a general concept rather than a discrete object, meaning it does not have a plural form and cannot be counted with numbers; instead, it is referred to as a practice or a system.
