a. The term is "out of wedlock".
b. It means being an illegitimate child. (Also known as a bastard, but that word has become an insult.) You are an illegitimate child if your parents were not married when you were born.

The word is wedlock. It means being born outside of marriage - no wedding lock.

It's born out of "wedlock"... and it means that one was born to unwed parents (two people who weren't married at the time). And it doesn't mean anything.

It means that the parents were not married when the child was born.

Out of wedlock. Born to a mother who is not married. Married - Wedding - Wed - Wedlock.

Lol... It's actually Wedlock. It means that a baby is born to a couple who is not married. I know.... Not such a huge issue outside of the bible belt, but it is a huge deal to the strongly religious.

The term is "born out of wedlock" and it means being born to someone who is not married. ("wedlock" = marriage)
