NASS RIVER TERMS OF RELATIONSHIP
271

To 28, 29. These terms were misunderstood. No. 29 is merely a collective form of 28 ; its meaning is "relatives all together." The terms do not specifically refer to blood-relatives, but apply to all relations, whether by blood or marriage. If necessary, the blood-relative may be distinguished as lɚp-wilä'"ick u , "self-relative, relative par excellence"
