In Everett's formulation, a measuring apparatus M and an object system S form a composite system, each of which prior to
measurement exists in well-defined (but time-dependent) states. Measurement is regarded as causing M and S to interact. After S interacts with M, it is no longer possible to describe either system by an independent state. According to Everett, the only meaningful descriptions of each system are relative states: for example the relative state of S given the state of M or the relative state of M given the state of S.

Confusing? It was for me. Perhaps you would have understood it better if I wrote it like this:
