General Information about family/relative terms
 Definition
In traditional Macedonian society, family terms are more complex, than in America, because there are separate terms for maternal and paternal lines, and separate designations for the wife's in-laws and the husband's. In traditional Macedonian culture, the bride typically would move and become part of the husband's extended family.
