Serbian term or phrase: zajedničko domaćinstvo
xxx živi u zajedničkom domaćinstvu sa yyy.
Koliko mi je poznato radi se o bračnim supružnicima. Da li da napišem samo household? Mislim da joint or common household može da ima neku drugu konotaciju ili možda ne?

neutral  Milena Chkripeska: Slazem se, to je to, ali mislim da je termin previse opsti - meaning living with a roommate or even living in cohabitation, but not necessarily with a spouse. Ovde se radi o bračnim supružnicima.

common law marriage


Explanation:
Common-law marriage (or common law marriage), sometimes called de facto marriage, informal marriage or marriage by habit and repute, is a form of interpersonal status which is legally recognized in some jurisdictions as a marriage even though no legally recognized marriage ceremony is performed or civil marriage contract is entered into or the marriage registered in a civil registry.

spousal relationship


Explanation:
The concept of not living separate and apart does not simply mean that you are residing together. Rather,
not living separate and apart also means that a spousal relationship exists. Evidence of a spousal relationship
includes: eating meals together; sharing a conjugal relationship, participating together in social activities,
and having joint finances.

neutral  Natasa Djurovic: Da to je bračna zajednica ili bračni odnos, ali ne i zajedničko domaćinstvo! Sorry, this term is not appropriate to this contex!
6 mins
  -> According to this: "Evidence of a spousal relationship includes: eating meals together; sharing a conjugal relationship, participating together in social activities, and having joint finances", I found this term appropriate to the context.
disagree  Kristina Kolic: Ovo nažalost nije prijevod za "zajedničko domaćinstvo" koje ne mora nužno značiti brak; u njemu mogu živjeti izvanbračni partneri, djeca, roditelji, itd. već prema slučaju...
1 hr
  -> Thank you for the comment! I chose this term, simply because the asker specified that it is about a married couple in this case ("radi se o bračnim supružnicima")
