convenance

Some striking instances of the Marriage de convenance being infringed on, have lately occurred in France.

France is the most unchanging country in the world in her habits and domestic institutions, and foremost among these is her ‘Marriage de convenance,’ or ‘Marriage de raison.’

In the Hellenic world, also, among the successors of Alexander the Great, there was a revoltingly large number of marriages de convenance, so that even the old Seleucos took to wife the grand-daughter of his competitor Antegonos, Lysimachos the daughter of Ptolemy etc.

Et si, en l'écartant on veut que le Concile prenne lui-même la responsabilité d'une définition dogmatique, il est alors de toute convenance, de toute justice, de toute nécessité qu'il ne prononce qu'après l'examen le plus approfondi.

Value is either a "rapport de convenance" between a man and a good, i.e., ophelimity, or is a "taux d'échange," a ratio between two goods.
