O QUE SIGNIFICA GRANDFATHER EM INGLÊS

Avó

Grandparent

Os avós são pais do pai ou da mãe de uma pessoa - paterna ou materna. Toda criatura de reprodução sexual que não é uma quimera genética tem um máximo de quatro avós genéticos, oito bisavós genéticos, dezesseis genocicultores genéticos, etc., embora os números possam ser menores devido ao colapso da pedigree. Na história da humanidade moderna, cerca de 30 mil anos atrás, o número de humanos modernos que viveram como avós aumentou substancialmente. Não se sabe com certeza o que estimulou esse aumento na longevidade, mas acredita-se que uma conseqüência fundamental de três gerações vivas juntas foi a preservação de informações que de outra forma poderiam ter sido perdidas; um exemplo desta informação importante poderia ter sido onde encontrar água em tempos de seca. Nos casos em que os pais não estão dispostos ou não conseguem cuidar adequadamente de seus filhos, os avós geralmente assumem o papel de cuidadores primários. Mesmo quando não é esse o caso e, em particular, nas culturas tradicionais, os avós têm frequentemente um papel direto e claro em relação à criação, assistência e educação das crianças.

Grandparents are the parents of a person's father or mother – paternal or maternal. Every sexually-reproducing creature who is not a genetic chimera has a maximum of four genetic grandparents, eight genetic great-grandparents, sixteen genetic great-great-grandparents, etc., though the numbers can be lower due to pedigree collapse. In the history of modern humanity, around 30,000 years ago, the number of modern humans who lived to be grandparents increased substantially. It is not known for certain what spurred this increase in longevity, but it is believed that a key consequence of three generations being alive together was the preservation of information which could otherwise have been lost; an example of this important information might have been where to find water in times of drought. In cases where parents are unwilling or unable to provide adequate care for their children, grandparents often take on the role of primary caregivers. Even when this is not the case, and particularly in traditional cultures, grandparents often have a direct and clear role in relation to the raising, care and nurture of children.
