2, Husband, viz., wife dead.
ch’a'lpaa, used for all relatives by marriage after death of husband or wife.

it is a significant fact that one term serves to designate the wife’s sister and the
husband’s brother, who become the wife or husband of the widower, or widow. On
the coast, when a masculine ora feminine article is used, the same terms serve for
male and female relations. Here, where there is no grammatical distinction between
the sexes, separate terms are used. It is worth remarking that the Bilqula, who
have grammatical distinction of sex, distinguish between but a few of these terms.
This may indicate that the separate forms have been lost by the tribes who use

gvrammatical sex.
