Anna,
Couldn't help noticing the irony when you said this:
>In Finnish, the word "avioliitto" means "marital union",
>the official, traditional marriage that an authority
>figure (spiritual or civil) has confirmed and sealed.
>The word "avoliitto" means "open union".
>There's only a one-letter difference between the words.
As long as we're playing with language, note that the missing letter is "I". {grin}
