Let M be a nonzero unital module over a commutative ring R with a nonzero
identity. A proper submodule N of M is said to be a weakly n-submodule if whenever 0 ̸= am∈
N for some a ∈R and m ∈M, then a ∈ ann(M) or m ∈N. We examine the relations
between weakly n-submodules and classical submodules such as prime, weakly prime, weakly
primary and r-submodules. Also, we characterize modules over which every nonzero submodule
is secondary by using weakly n-submodules.
