Answer 3

This universe is wonderful.  using the 6th sense our generation people doing excellent works to settle in life.  you asked to state four types.   see below:

1.  arranged marriage:

     It is the marriage arranged by elders.  They will see the  

     boy and girl.  They arrange like get together and in that

    occasion, the boy will see the girl and will tel his

    approval.  mostly, the boy's opinion only be heard. This

    is called arranged marriage.

2.  Instant marriage:

     He saw her.  She saw him.  They like each other.  This is

     not love.  One is escaping from family pressure on boy

     or girl.  Not interested with the pressure nd it is a must

     to get married immediately.  This is instant marriage.

     Though  the  %  is less, but fact.

3.  Registered marriage:

     This is love marriage.  Both parents of the boy and girl

     fully opposes.  Disagrees of boy's/girl's decisions.

     They will come out of their parents and completes the

     marriage process in register office with witnesses.

     (mostly friends will sign witness)

4.  Marriage under pressure.

     what is this?  Surely, the boy disagree and the girl

     also.  But the elders decided and conducts marriage,

     why?   property..propertties..  if the boy marries a

     girl outside, the property will go out of their hands or

     if the girl marries a boy outside, the property rights

     may go.  so,  they search for a relation and conducts

     marriage.  They marry without interest, but giving

     birth propmptly.

5.  Dum...Dum.. Dum..  no wonder..  it is child marriage..

     Even in this moder tech world, have you hear child

     marriage.   yes.. it is going on..  a boy at the age of

     11 to 13,  marrying a girl at age raging  8 to 10.  This

     is even now going in some parts of the universe.

my answer is as per my knowledge.
