WHAT DOES CONSANGUINEOUS MEAN IN ENGLISH?

consanguineous

Consanguinity

Consanguinity is the property of being from the same kinship as another person. In that respect, consanguinity is the quality of being descended from the same ancestor as another person. The laws of many jurisdictions set out degrees of consanguinity in relation to prohibited sexual relations and marriage parties or whether a given person inherits property when a deceased person has not left a will. The degree of relative consanguinity can be illustrated with a consanguinity table, in which each level of lineal consanguinity appears as a row, and individuals with a collaterally consanguineous relationship share the same row. The Knot System is a numerical notation that defines consanguinity.
