Topic: Second cousin


  
  Cousin chart - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The term cousin typically refers to the child of one's parent's sibling.
Ordinal numbers (first, second, third, etc) are used to quantify in which preceding generation the common direct ancestor is located.
In purely mathematical terms, a sibling could be defined as a "zeroth cousin", and a niece/nephew–aunt/uncle relationship could be described as "zeroth cousins once removed"; however such terms are never used.
