- An overly-specific term that would be used in place of vunkla-camu in normal speech only in a case where one wanted to specify that the relative in question was married to one’s uncle rather than one’s aunt. There are additionally even more specific terms such as vunklotca-caminu ‘uncle’s wife’ and vunklotca-camotcu ‘uncle’s husband’ which are usually reserved for legal documents or other language that needs to be very precise.
