French to English translations [PRO] Law/Patents - Law (general) / Inheritance law [FR] | | French term or phrase: régime de la communauté universelle | In a document explaining inheritance law to the public. The meaning of the term is made quite clear, but please can anyone help me find the right technical term?
As I planned to translate 'régime matrimonial' as 'marriage settlement' (cf. gloss.), I wonder how to translate 'régime' here, depending on what the other bit is. Also, lower down, there is the related term 'clause d’attribution intégrale de communauté ' --- help please!
"Pour bien protéger son conjoint, il convient de choisir un régime matrimonial approprié. Le *** régime de la communauté universelle *** est l’un des plus adaptés. Les époux n’ont qu’un seul et même patrimoine, composé de tout ce que les époux ont acquis durant leur mariage, de ce qu’ils possédaient en propre lors de l’adoption de ce régime, ainsi que des biens qu’ils recevront à la suite d’une donation ou d’une succession. Très souvent, on associe à ce régime *** une clause d’attribution intégrale de communauté ***. |

| | community of matrimonial property [arrangement]; wholesale joint estate['tenancy´] clause | Explanation: I disagree that 'régime matrimonial' is a marriage settlement that is more akin to a contrat de marriage. The regime is a scheme or system of the way matrimonial prop. is held. In the first ** section, it can probably be omitted.
Joint tenancy in Eng. & Welsh law is a feudalistic term for joint ownership.
