    The authors define some module properties dual to those in the literature and describe the abelian groups which satisfy them. For example, a submodule \(N\) of a module \(M\) is \textit{co-rational} if for all submodules \(L\) of \(N\), Hom\((M,N/L)=0\); \(M\) is \textit{co-Kasch} if it has no non-zero corational submodules, and \(M\) is \textit{co-polyform} if every small submodule is co-rational. They show that if \(M\) is a torsion abelian group, then co-Kasch is equivalent to retractable, i.e., for every non-zero submodule \(N\), Hom\((M,N)\ne 0\). An abelian group \(M\) is co-polyform if and only if it satisfies one of the following: \begin{itemize} \item \(M\) has zero Jacobson radical; \item \(M\) is divisible; \item \(M=D\bigoplus R\) where \(D\) is divisible torsion, \(R\) has zero Jacobson radical, and if \(D\) has non-zero \(p\)-component, then \(p\) divides \(R\). \end{itemize}
