Description
Display supplied kin terms as a source-qualified reciprocal pair.
Anthropological records preserve source language, translation status, community terms, household reference dates, kinship labels and permission context. A reciprocal-term display is not a verified kinship rule, while a pseudonym collision differs from identity verification. Display masks and public-access labels do not establish adequate protection or valid consent.
Display supplied kin terms as a source-qualified reciprocal pair.
When to use this tool
Use Kin Term Reciprocal Source Pair when you already have firstTerm, reciprocalTerm, sourceId and need to display supplied kin terms as a source-qualified reciprocal pair.
How to use the tool and how it works
- Enter firstTerm, reciprocalTerm, sourceId. Use the units and conventions below.
- Run the tool. Correct any format, range, or cross-field input error before interpreting the output.
- Read label. Use the output convention below.
Require firstTerm, reciprocalTerm and sourceId nonempty; join the terms with a reciprocal arrow and source label.1

"input": {
"firstTerm": "term A",
"reciprocalTerm": "term B",
"sourceId": "field lexicon 17"
},
"output": {
"label": "term A ↔ term B [field lexicon 17]"
}
}Limitations and assumptions
- No kinship relation, linguistic equivalence, cultural rule or source authority is inferred.
- Inputs must satisfy both the field types and the cross-field conditions above. Invalid input causes an error; a successful false flag or documented placeholder is a different result.
Alternative or Complementary methods
Consult the original field records, community-provided terms, translation sources and permission instructions for actual interpretation or reuse. Apply protection to underlying records and evaluate the full research context; local keys and status labels do not perform those tasks.
