1 will: A "(legal) will" is an official document indicating distribution of possessions after death. Mrs Bentley reads a message from Brian's grandfather that declares "this to be my last will and testament". This is an official legal statement which is used to show that no other inheritance document is valid.
2 testament: A "testament" is another term for a "(legal) will". It is commonly used in legal English to refer to an official document indicating distribution of possessions after death.
3 event: "In the event of (something)" means "if (something) happens", or "in case it happens". Example: In the event of rain, the tennis match will be cancelled.
4 death: "Death" is the opposite of "life". It is common in "wills" or "testaments" to refer to one's "death".
5 bequeath: "To bequeath" is a legal term that means to leave or give (personal property) by a will or testament. Example: Bruno's grandfather bequeathed him a perfume shop.
