Etymology: < yoke n. + fellow n. In quot. 1526 at sense 1a (and also quot. 1541 at sense 1b) after ancient Greek σύζυγος comrade, companion, use as noun of σύζυγος yoked (see syzygy n.).Many scholars have interpreted the occurrence of ancient Greek σύζυγος in St Paul (compare quot. 1526 at sense 1a) as a proper name, but it has not yet been found as a proper name elsewhere. With use with reference to marriage (see sense 1b) compare also classical Latin coniunx spouse ( < coniungere : see conjoin v.; with the second element compare yoke n.).
