Definition #69802 - Preferred

 

definition

x₁ is a sibling of a direct ancestor/elder of x₂ by bond/tie/relation/standard x₃ (not necessarily genetic/biological nor necessarily directly ancestral); x₁ is an associated member of one of x₂'s ancestor's generation; x₁ is an (great-(great-(...)))uncle/aunt of x₂.

notes

Works for any nonnegative integer (including 0) number of "great-"s concatenated with any of the following: "uncle", "aunt", "nephew", "niece". Ancestor relationship may not be biological (it could be a string of adoptions, cultural/tribal leadership roles, biological parenthood, or any combination thereof); siblinghood may not be biological either. This word unifies the peripheral generalization/metaphoric sense of ".abvele" (understood to refer to a great-uncle or great-aunt, or the reciprocal relationship) with the meaning of "famti". It cannot refer to a sibling or a cousin (strict sense) of x₂ in a simple family tree. See: .abvele, famti, tunba, tamne.
