Kinship Puns

As I was reading old dictionaries from 1711, 1858, and from William Henry Scott's Barangay, I must say there are many old words that are nice to be reintroduced in Visayan languages—that's right, Visayan languages. I didn't even know that a Visayan word for 'thank you' was tamod in the 1858 dictionary, and recorded in the 1711 Mateo Sanchez dictionary as tamyer*,* and opa.

As for kinship terms, I was also surprised that the word for grandfather was Laki and for grandmother was Bayi. Fathers were addressed as mama or baba, while generally it was also amahan*,* ama*,* amay while the variant in Cebu was amba*.* Mothers were addressed as ina*,* inda*,* or indoy (or inday?). Uncles were addressed as bata, oyo*,* or yo-yo and aunts were iyaan, iya*,* or dada. Interestingly, older siblings DID have terms of address for their own: elder brothers were addressed as aso or ubo and elder sisters were *umbo—*this term is already reduced to an ancestress. But the 1858 dictionary also lists bobo as an endearment term for elder sibling (it said hermano but in Spanish the word could either mean sibling or brother). In my own personal speculation, when addressing someone using these terms, it doesn't sound right (kiwaw paminawon) when you attach first names, for example: Bobo Pedro, Umbo Mary, Oyo Junjun, and so on and so forth.

Old Spanish dictionaries often list Visayan languages as one, so these terms are applicable to all Visayan languages like Hiligaynon, Samarnon, Capiznon, Aklanon, and etc.

Here is the link to the dictionaries, the Barangay book was a PDF so unfortunately, you will have to scour for it.

Any historians can verify this one.

I live in europe, and recently there are a few big cases (in the Netherlands) which were solved by using kinship analysis. I don't know if this is allowed in the US? We don't know whether the found DNA is even human, but if it is, can LE put in public DNA data bases to try and find relatives of the perp?

My wife & I have been fostering her sister’s kids (now 12 & 13) for almost 4 years now. Mom has been in & out of rehab, did really well for almost a year and a half, we thought they were going to reunify, but she relapsed again. Dad is not a resource parent, but they do see him occasionally. (His choice, not ours.)

The caseworkers want to move to permanency, and are only giving us the option to adopt.

We absolutely want them to keep seeing their parents & don’t want them to call us mom - we’re their aunts, but have been acting parents for the past 4 years. The kiddos are comfortable here, & we are (age appropriately) honest with them about what’s going on.

The thing I’m struggling with is adoption changes your birth certificate, and will name us as parents. Is that something FFY - especially former kinship youth - care about? I don’t want to take away or replace their parents, but I want them to have permanency & security in our home.

They have a home here bo matter what happens, even if the case keeps going through the foster system, & we will support them if their mom eventually gets it together, & gets them back.

I guess I just want some input from people who were adopted/placed into permanent guardianship as older kiddos, or people who have done that with older kiddos who have a say.

Thanks for reading this & thanks for your emotional labor.

So I'm keeping this kinda vague, but my wife and I are starting the process of doing a kinship foster from out of state, we are the *only* family members that are able to foster for legal or abuse reasons. Our first home study is early next week. We didn't even know much about this child until November, the last time my wife or I have seen her was about 12-13 years ago when she was only a few months old, and we've been doing bi-weekly phone calls for the past few weeks and we've done one zoom meeting. They out of state CPS people haven't had us do any paperwork yet, and our home study is like I said earlier, early next week and I'm just not sure what to expect. We have to move around some things in our house as we are a BIG family (8 of us including my Wife and me) but we deff have the room for another one. I guess I'm just trying to figure out what to expect and how long of a process this is going to be from start to finish (not sure how many out of state fosters there are in this sub). Thanks for any answers

A bit curious, do any of your guys' families use the sibling/cousin terminologies of Kuya/Diko/Sangko and the female equivalent Ate/Ditse/Sangse? The use of these terminologies I've observed, seems to be quite unique to my family. I refer to my elder brothers as Diko and Kuya respectively, while my (younger/same-aged) cousins, uncles and aunts refer to me as Sangko. My other cousin's referred to as Ditse aswell. Evidently, I do notice these terminologies only apply within siblings/cousins when you're older than the person (From the POV of being the subject of the terms). It seems the terms have legitimate status in the Filipino language based on my research, and I have the impression they seem to be quite historically rooted too, but I haven't really come across any other family that uses these terminologies like how my family does.

Tl;DR Does your family use Kuya/Diko/Sangko or Ate/Ditse/Sangse terminology?

I'm getting a lot of conflicting information from the internet about familial terms. I understand that there can be differences in dialect which could explain this.

My question is just to clarify the words for mother, father, grandmother and grandfather. From my understanding these can be different based on whether it is paternal or maternal - this site says your paternal grandmother is your aana, your maternal grandmother your anaanatsiaq. Is this accurate? And do these words change if you are using them to refer to your own grandmother, somebody else's grandmother, etc.? Where does the word "ningiuq" come in?

Are there any reliable sources that would help explain this for a complete beginner? Would appreciate any help! :)

I am wondering if I were to leave kinship care and go to my parents house, would the dcs care? I will be 18 in like 9 months. I have been in care for 3 years and so unhappy. I am not being abused by my parents and have good grades in school. Thank you for reading.

I played the stories 2 demo on steam, but didn't get the kinship talisman. I got all the other crossover bonuses. Anybody else has the same issue?

I was wondering how accurate is this statement like could early human kinship be more diverse?

EDIT: trying to make a better question to explain what I am trying to understand

is there any theory that most anthropologist agree on what the early human kinship was? Like are we still uncertain if the early human kinship was Matrilineal, or could there have been a mix of Matrilineal, and Patrilineal?

Does it have to be a binary where its either Matrilineal, or Patrilineal for early humans?

Hi all, I've been lurking here for awhile. I've posted elsewhere about our situation but I'm wanting some feedback from people who are going through this or have been.

Backstory: my husband and our 3 kids have had our 2 niblings living with us for the past several months. CPS removed them from the home due to severe neglect, disgusting living conditions, parental alcohol abuse, etc. The kiddos are doing great with us, they're really thriving. My kids love having them here, they all play well together, etc. Their parents (my Sibling and their Spouse) are recently out of jail and in their rehab programs. No visits or contact at all since the removal.

So, obviously it's going to be a long while before the kids are able to go back home, if ever. We're in this for the long haul, we actually changed the design of our house that's being built to better suit 5 kids! My husband is over the moon having them here and wants to keep them forever. However, the more time that passes for me, the less thrilled I am about the prospect, if only because the majority of the stress falls to me to handle. That's just how it is for now and I'm coping.

Anyway, my question is, for those that did kinship care (or maybe even foster families that stayed in touch after the child moved on), how do you deal with that? Sibling and Spouse were some of our closest friends, our kids were growing up more like siblings than cousins even before this. I can't see myself ever going back to being friends with them after what they did, but I love my niblets as much as my own kids, so how do I balance seeing and visiting the kids after they (hopefully) go back home? What was it like for you guys?

Sorry if I'm not making sense, it's getting late and I'm tired! I'll answer questions as I'm able, thanks for any wisdom or advice!

Hey all, I plan on diving in pretty soon as a new player (technically returning but it’s been about a decade, don’t have original account and don’t remember anything!).

I feel like I’m much more likely to stick around and experience all that I’ve missed if I have a group to play with but not sure if any kinships take in brand new players these days? Would I have a better shot on Arkenstone or Treebeard?

I’ll be playing a High Elf Warden and Human Burglar if it matters :)

Was this patterned after similar uses in religious/political contexts? And what about those uses? (fatherland, motherland, brotherhood, etc.)

Sorry if this isn't the best place to ask but I asked in the subreddit for my province and legaladivecanada but didn't really get an answer. I have been in care for a few years now and want to know would i get taken back into care if I were to go to my parents house? thank you for reading.

Surely, I'm not the only one that looks forward to re-watching this show and re-binging on old seasons every Autumn. There is just something about this series that speaks to me. Maybe it's the humor or the music or the actors. Probably an accumulation of them all. It's just...cozy. Like hot chocolate by the fire on a chilly day. I truly look forward to every Fall, when I re-binge each season, starting with my favorites, Coven and Hotel, then ending with Roanoke, which reminds me every single time that I liked that season more than I recalled. It almost feels like I'm having a reunion with old friends that I haven't seen or talked to in a year. It's just such a fun show and I dread the day when the show runners pull the plug.

Having said that, Death Valley will be the only season excluded from my re-watch list in the future. I don't know her.

What did you guys think of the whole “Atreides and Harkonnen are related” reveal in the movie? It’s been a while since I read the book, but from what I remember it’s Paul who reveals that to us during his vision in the tent.

In the movie it was super lowkey, when the Baron called Duke Leto his cousin during their confrontation. I thought it was great how downplayed that was, but on the other hand my friends who never read the book didn’t even notice it - which could be bad for new audiences, since it’s a pretty big reveal.

I get that if it was a bigger thing it might have been seen as a “Star Wars” moment, even if Star Wars originally ripped that idea from Dune.

What do you guys think?

EDIT - Got confused and forgot the specifics of the Harkonnen-Atreides parentage, guess my mind played tricks on me since I was expecting the reveal at the tent scene. Been a while since I read the book lol.

So my sister had her baby, who was born exposed to heroin and meth, then left her at the hospital. I've been her placement since she was 6 days old and she's about 6 weeks old now. A while ago my sister expressed that she wanted to transfer to a place that allows children. She's going there on Tuesday. I'm not sure if/ when they'll allow my niece to go there but im just struggling at the thought. I know reunification is always the goal and I understand she's not mine.. but I don't want her to go. I'm always going to worry about her and im terrified my sister and her guy will relapse and put my niece in harms way. God this is so hard.

posted this issue a day or two ago on r/Skyrimmodsxbox and I have yet to get a response so I'll post here too.

basically, I've been aiming for the kinship ending in m'rissi's tales of trouble, and I've gotten it, but now when I talk to S'ahara so she will bring me to the special place to preform the ceremony, I can't move, draw weapons/Spells, activate her or m'rissi, or anything. I assumed this was part of the mod, but then after waiting an ungodly amount of time for the ceremony to actually begin I realized she was supposed to have said something and she just.. won't. she won't talk. she won't initiate the ceremony and I'm left stuck there until I reload a save.

I'll post my LO but at this point I've tried everything I can think of, and since I'm on Xbox there is nothing I can do in the way of console commands to progress the quest.

Brazilians don’t, not really. Brazil is too insular in South America to really have much contact with the rest of you, I’m from the South, one of the areas that I assume have the most contact with other South Americans and even then it’s quit distant. And I mean South America, whatever is between Colombia and the US might not even exist.

Even when we refer to Latin America is usually to highlight something about the region. There’s just this overall alienation from the region. Politically I think Brazil wants a closer South America, buts it’s transparently an attempt at a consolidation of power, not really a cultural thing.

My impression is that the Hispanics are way closer to one another than we are with any of them.

Also, what do you think of Hispanic Americans (as in, from the US)? If someone from the US tells me they’re Brazilian because their parents are, well, I wouldn’t be inclined to agree.
