It is extremely important in historical anthropology to note that most kinship terms in Chlouvānem are not Proto-Lahob in origin, but derived from other languages of the late-First Era Jade Coast. This is taken as certifying the large amount of intercultural mixing among populations in that time and place. | |||

** ''leilviṣṭimė glūkam/praškas/nālis'' (pl. ''leilviṣṭimāhai glūkās/praške/nālais'') — male first cousins | |||
*** Note that there are also the terms formed by prefixing ''nėma-'', ''suhāl-'', ''jolgi-'', and ''vahū-'' depending on the aunt or uncle. The forms for the cousins through maternal aunt (''nėmañæltah, nėmaglūkam'' and so on) are commonly used; all other ones are literary and bureaucratic (cf. ''suhālñæltah'' "male's female first cousin through paternal aunt", ''jolgiñæltah'' "male's female first cousin through maternal uncle", ''vahūñæltah'' "male's female first cousin through paternal uncle). | |||

** ''leilviṣṭimė jolgam/vahūm'' — male first cousins once removed of a prior generation | |||
*** Here, the distinction between ''naimā'' and ''suhāli'' (and ''jolgam'' and ''vahūm'') simply refers to the family side viewed from the Ego: ''naimai'' and ''jolgās'' are on the maternal side, while ''suhāli'' and ''vahūm'' are on the paternal side. | |||

** ''daniviṣṭimė glūkam/praškas/nālis'' (pl. ''daniviṣṭimāhai glūkās/praške/nālais'') — male second cousins | |||
*** Terms such as ''leilviṣṭimė nėmañæltah'' "male's female second cousin through a female first cousin once removed of a prior generation the maternal side of the family" do exist, but are obsolete in contemporary Chlouvānem. | |||
