fictive kinship  

Definición

  • Fictive kinship comprises all those relationships socially understood as kinship different from descent and marriage, indicated by the usage of its terms, either modified (e.g., comadre) or not, as in some cases of fosterage, in which the term mother is the same regardless of whether it is the birth or foster mother. Taken literally, fictive kinship is a misnomer. [Source: Encyclopedia of Human Relationships; Fictive Kinship]
