 Siblings generally share the same term with parallel-cousins as with any Bifurcate merging kinship system due to being a member the same "doodem", but the modified system allows for younger sibling to share the same kinship term with younger cross-cousins ("nishiimenh").In addition the complexity wanes as one goes away from the speaker's immediate generation, with some degree of complexity retained with female relatives (for example, "ninooshenh" is "my mother's sister" or "my father's sister-in-law"—i.e., my parallel-aunt—but also "my parent's female cross-cousin").In both with the great-grandparents and older generations and with the great-grandchildren and younger generations, the Ojibwa collectively calls them "aanikoobijigan".
