Talk:Dyadic kinship term

[Untitled]

"Dyadic blood kin terms are absent from Indo-European languages with the exception of Icelandic and Faroese"

How about German 'Geschwister'?

How is that different from "siblings" in English? — kwami (talk) 20:03, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

Two issues

• Esperanto has a special prefix ge- (taken from German, like the 'Geschwister' mentioned above), to show both-sex parties, like 'gefratoj' (brother(s) and sister(s)), but it may relate also to 'not blood kinship', like or 'gepatroj' (parents = mother and father), or 'geamikoj' (friends of both sexes). Is the first relation mentioned by me a dyadic kinship?
• BTW I don't see how 'co-mothers-in-law' could be an exaple of a wrod representing a dyadic kinship either in the sense of "blood kinship" or in the sense of "the relationship between individuals as they relate one to the other". "in-lawship" certainly isn't an example of "blook kinship". And one mother-in-law certainly isn't "mother-in-law" to the other mother oin law. Maybe the definitions in the article, or the examples, should be reconsidered and the article rewritten? noychoH (talk) 23:28, 28 January 2023 (UTC)
