Abstract
The author proceeds from Greenberg's study on kinship terminology, more specifically Greenberg's universal that the kinship categories closest to the EGO are differentiated and expressed in separate terms. While the notions of 'father' and 'mother' are denoted by separate words in the languages of the world, it is remarkable that the common term for both of them is less general. The notion of 'parent' is expressed in different ways in the languages of the world. In the Uralic languages: (1) it is derived from 'bear; give birth'; (2) it is derived from 'older'; (3) it is the plural or dual of 'father' or a compound consisting of 'father' and another noun conceptually not related to mother; (4) it is a compound of 'father' and 'mother.' The Nganasan expressions of 'parent' are closest to groups (3) and (4). They are special in that both the dual of 'father' and 'mother' can express 'parents.' Thus the tendency, also recognized by Greenberg, that the male category is primary against the female category, is not valid in this language.
