I would suppose duedzineco would work for bigamy and pliedzineco for polygamy, but I don't know if I would be understood if I used that construction. Is there an existing convention?

That said, Werechick's construction seems logical to me, and E-o is supposed to let us form compound words that way.

These words are more precise.

pluredzeco is having some husbands (polyandry?)
Revo:kromedzinoIn polygamy every next wife after the first one.

sergejm:pluredzinecoAccording to my dictionary, polygamy is defined as such:
pluredzeco is having some husbands (polyandry?)
"the practice or condition of having more than one spouse, esp. wife, at one time."
Therefore I think pluredzeco is still valid (I read it as "plural-marriage-related-entity-quality", not as "plural-husband-quality").
The word "gamos" means "marriage".

(poly = many, andros = male)
polygyny is when a man has multiple wives
