Aeranir: Difference between revisions

In the case that the father is not a member of the mother's House, but still remains a part of their child's life, then there are paternal equivalents to the terms above to describe members of the father's House. It should be notes that in cases where the father is not a part of the mother's house, which were very common, the mother and child may often have no relationship with their father, or simply no know who he was.  Thus, many Aerans lacked 'fathers' in the social sense.  In addition to the maternal and paternal Houses, there are terms for relations outside of the House, e.g. an older person you know but is not a part of your house may also be called 'uncle,' or a younger person near in age to you (at school) for example may be called 'little sibling/cousin.'
