- La novena: In the Roman Catholic Church the novena is a form of worship consisting of special prayers or services on nine successive days. A Novena for the dead is specifically intended for someone who has passed away and to help the deceased person thereby strengthening them through their journey in the afterlife.
- Viàtic = Viaticum: A Latin term in the Catholic Church referring to the Eucharist as given to a person near or in danger of death.
- Viuda relicta: this is another, often archaic way of saying "widow."
