Skyrdagor's kinship terminology is Calémere's prototypical example of an [[w:Hawaiian kinship|Hawaiian kinship]] system – that is, aunts and uncles are referred to with the same terms as "mother" and "father", and cousins are referred to as "brothers" and "sisters".

The actual terms used in Skyrdagor are a bit more complicated as they distinguish relative age in same-gendered siblings (incl. cousins), a trait found in many Fargulyn, Samaidulic, and Lahob languages. Note that most kinship terms (excluding, notably, "son" and "daughter") are obligatorily possessed nouns, hence only the stems will be given here: | ||
* ''fon-'' — father, uncle | * ''fon-'' — father, uncle | ||
