		Kinship terminologies often cannot be fully translated from one language into another as the relationships that are recognized in one society may not have an exact counterpart among the relationships recognized in another society.
		Instead, the kinship terminology is a cultural construct and the meaning of kin terms cannot be fully understood without reference to that construct and the logic underlying how it is generated.
		The constraint imposed by the algebraic structure on instantiation lies in the structural properties of a kinship terminology that are mapped onto individuals through the process of instantiation, such as instantiation must be consistent with the reciprocity of kin terms, and the generative properties of the kinship terminology structure.
