consort/wife

What's the difference between consort and wife? Manduhai is listed as a consort while the others are listed as wives. Didn't she marry him? Gantuya eng (talk) 12:19, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

according to consort, "a consort is a spouse, usually of royalty or of a deity.". Yaan (talk) 12:56, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

and how about Khusei, Jimisgene (what a cute name;)) and others? Gantuya eng (talk) 13:05, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Maybe they only were secondary wives? I don't know.Yaan (talk) 13:35, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Well, spouses are listed for 3 khans only. Would be interesting to complete it for the rest. Gantuya eng (talk) 14:44, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I have no interests to be picky in wording, but we'd just follow what is usually said. That's what an encyclopedia will do. We are Wikipedians, and should try to reduce other (e.g. geographic) difference as possible. --Enchyin (talk) 20:57, 11 March 2011 (UTC)[reply]
