<p>Hi all</p>
<p>What Hedwig is looking for is common in West Africa. I can think
of Manjaku, Balanta and Bijogo, but RefLex (<a class="moz-txt-link-abbreviated" href="http://www.reflex.cnrs.fr">www.reflex.cnrs.fr</a>)
also gives interesting results for some Bantu languages, among
others. Many languages (like Joola, Baynunk) have a contrast
between "same sex sibling" vs "opposite sex sibling", regardless
of age. I have no example in mind of languages having a 4-term
contrast combinig the two above features.</p>

<div dir="ltr">Dear LINGTYP,
<div><br>
</div>
<div>Does anyone know of a language that has a distinction in
the kinship system for age of referent (younger/older) without
also having a distinction for gender of referent? For example,
a language that marks siblings as being younger or older to
ego without reference to being sister or brother.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>The hypothesis is that this doesn't happen/is very rare.
We'd like to know if you've come across any examples of this.</div>
<div><br>
</div>
<div>I'm asking for my friend Alex (cc:ed) who is not on the
list. Please direct any responses or comments to her.</div>
