However, I think I know better. "Consort" is used quite a bit to mean non- married sexual partner, often sharing domicile. I would submit that the dictionary is (gasp!) wrong. By the bye, my only problem with "leman" is that its primary pronunciation (Webster's, again, unfortunately) is the same as "lemon". My leman is anything BUT a lemon! Ken
