Could anybody help me to understand this sentence? I've had a question about this sentence while I was studying...

< The woman Sam is married to runs a software business >

Is it correct?

I've learned ''marry' is used with preposition 'to+somebody' or 'with+noun'.

Plz explain about this sentence for me, thanks in advance!

I think that this is a poorly constructed sentence. It would have been easier to say "Sam's wife". It is, however, fairly common for native speakers to say things similar to this. "The girl that he's going out with works in our office" would be another good example.

You can actually married here as an adjetive to describe a state of a person. It maybe make more sense to you.

1. I was married in church.

2.my sister got married to a Welshman
