/raɪt ʌv sərˈvaɪvərˌʃɪp/ – Phrase
Definition: quyền của người thừa kế còn sống (quyền phát sinh do một hay nhiều người đồng thừa kế qua đời).
A more thorough explanation: The legal English definition of the term “right of survivorship” refers to a legal right that allows a co-owner of property, typically in a joint tenancy or tenancy by the entirety, to inherit the interest of a deceased co-owner. This right ensures that when one co-owner passes away, their share of the property automatically transfers to the surviving co-owner(s) without the need for probate proceedings or the deceased co-owner’s estate to be involved.
Example: In a joint tenancy with right of survivorship, when one owner passes away, their share automatically transfers to the surviving owner.
