China Kinship Calculator Open source algorithm

Kinship is a social relationship based on marriage, consanguinity and legal fiction. Kinship includes husband and wife, parents, children, siblings, grandparents, grandchildren, daughter-in-law and mother-in-law, son-in-law and parents in law, and other collateral relatives within three generations, such as uncles, uncles, aunts, uncles, aunts, nieces, nieces, cousins, cousins, aunts, etc.

Kinship terms refer to the names that determine the relationship between kinship members and themselves centering on themselves. They are the names and terms of address between relatives based on blood and marriage. The family kinship of the Han nationality is clear and orderly: aunts and uncles who are one generation older than themselves, brothers and sisters, cousins, etc. of the same generation, nephews and nephews of the next generation, etc. The kinship of Chinese people due to marriage is quite complicated. It is difficult to distinguish the "Eighteen Dynasties of Ancestors", "Five Costumes", "Six Parents" and "Nine Ethnic Groups". The various terms derived from them are also a major feature of Chinese culture.

Nowadays, due to the difference in the pace of work and life, many relatives who are slightly estranged do not have much contact with each other, and the age difference between older and younger generations is blurred. When visiting relatives during the Spring Festival, when they meet seven aunts and eight aunts, they often don't know which relatives should call, which is very embarrassing. Not only are children confused about kinship and kinship terms, but even young adults are often confused.
