[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] Here's a chart that explains it from a genealogy perspective. https://www.familysearch.org/en/blog/cousin-chart I think people use a loose definition of cousins when they are indicating that they are "kind of related". [/quote] This. Over the holidays we usually see a group of my first cousins (they are all siblings) and their families. Specific relationships include first and second cousins, various levels of "removed". We just call everyone cousins although some of the cousins kids at this point put me in the "aunt" category.[/quote] This. Cousin is both a specific term (children of your sibling) and a looser term for person in the same generation as you in an extended family. People who need always to drill down and use the exact term for such a relationship are overly pedantic. [/quote]
