[Neutralization and Ambiguity in the Semantic Field of Kinship] In the semantic field of kinship terms point out a few facts: a plural form as Rom. fraţi neutralizes the binary opposition based on gender: frate/ soră, a distinction between paternal and maternal line as in Lat. avunculus/ patruus does not appear in Romance languages, and the meaning disambiguation of a word as Rom. nepot (“grandson” and “nephew”) is required. This article analyses such aspects by investigating kinship terms in the main Romance languages. This gives general insight into the linguistic phenomena of lexical neutralization, syncretism and ambiguity.
