Question

codicil With the birth of each new grandchild, the old man added a new codicil to his will. codicil*

Accepted Answer

(1) An amendment or addition made to a will. (2) An appendix or supplement. A codicil is literally a “little codex,” a little bit of writing on a small piece of writing material, used to add to or change something about a larger piece of writing. A codicil to a will can change the terms of the original will completely, so it generally requires witnesses just like the will itself, though in some states a handwritten codicil may not. In mystery novels, such changes have been known to cause murders; in real life, codicils aren't usually quite that exciting
