Answer:
Voluntary sexual intercourse between a married person and another person who is not the spouse, while the marriage is still valid. Adultery is also referred to as extramarital sex, philandery, or infidelity. This is a common fact relied on for divorce. The word adultery originates not from "adult," as is commonly thought in English-speaking countries, but from the Late Latin word for "to alter, corrupt": adulterare. Adultery is considered crime in many countries though many countries have decriminalized it.
