[IDEM libro singulari de gradibus et adfinibus et nominibus eorum. ] §38.10.10.15Quarto gradu personae continentur octoginta. abauus, cuius intellectus in octo personas porrigitur: est enim proaui paterni aut materni pater, quos singulos duplici modo intellegendos diximus, aut proauiae paternae aut maternae pater, quae et ipsae singulae dupliciter accipiuntur.
In the fourth degree, eighty persons are included: great-great-grandfather, the understanding of whom extends to eight persons: for he is the father of a paternal or maternal great-grandfather (each of whom we have said is to be understood in a twofold way), or the father of a paternal or maternal great-grandmother (who themselves are also each received in a twofold way).
abauia: et haec octies numeratur: est enim proaui paterni aut materni, item proauiae paternae aut maternae mater.
Great-great-grandmother: and she is counted eight times: for she is the mother of a paternal or maternal great-grandfather, likewise of a paternal or maternal great-grandmother.
patruus magnus est frater aui: qui auus, item frater cum duobus modis intelleguntur, quattuor personas hoc nomen amplectitur, ut sit aui paterni uel materni frater, qui uel eodem patre, id est proauo, uel tantum matre eadem, id est proauia natus est: qui autem mihi patruus magnus est, is patri meo uel matri meae patruus est.
The paternal great-uncle is the grandfather's brother: since both grandfather and brother are understood in two ways, this name comprises four persons, so that he is the brother of a paternal or maternal grandfather, who was born either of the same father, that is, the great-grandfather, or only of the same mother, that is, the great-grandmother: moreover, he who is a paternal great-uncle to me is a paternal uncle to my father or my mother.
amita magna est aui soror: auus autem, item soror, ut supra diximus, dupliciter intelleguntur et ideo hic quoque quattuor personas intellegimus: similiter quae patris mei uel matris meae amita est, mihi erit amita magna.
The paternal great-aunt is the grandfather's sister: moreover, grandfather and sister, as we have said above, are understood in a twofold way, and therefore here too we understand four persons: similarly, she who is a paternal aunt to my father or my mother will be a paternal great-aunt to me.
auunculus magnus est auiae frater: quattuor personae huic nomini eadem ratione subiectae sunt mihique is est auunculus magnus, qui patri meo uel matri meae auunculus est.
The maternal great-uncle is the grandmother's brother: four persons are subject to this name for the same reason, and he is a maternal great-uncle to me who is a maternal uncle to my father or my mother.
matertera magna est auiae soror: quattuor modis et haec ob eandem causam intellegitur: ea, quae patri meo uel matri meae matertera est, mihi matertera magna uocatur.
The maternal great-aunt is the grandmother's sister: she also is understood in four ways for the same reason: she who is a maternal aunt to my father or my mother is called a maternal great-aunt to me.
eodem gradu sunt et illi qui uocantur fratres patrueles, item sorores patrueles, amitini amitinae, consobrini consobrinae: hi autem sunt, qui ex fratribus uel sororibus nascuntur.
In the same degree are also those who are called paternal cousins (male), paternal cousins (female), cousins from paternal aunts or maternal uncles (male and female), and maternal cousins (male and female): these, moreover, are those who are born of brothers or sisters.
quos quidam ita distinxerunt, ut eos quidem, qui ex fratribus nati sunt, fratres patrueles, item eas, quae ex fratribus natae sunt, sorores patrueles: ex fratre autem et sorore amitinos amitinas: eos uero et eas, qui quaeue ex sororibus nati nataeue sunt, consobrinos consobrinas quasi consororinos: sed plerique hos omnes consobrinos uocant, sicut Trebatius.
Whom some have distinguished in such a way that those born of brothers they call paternal cousins (male), likewise those born of brothers paternal cousins (female); those from a brother and a sister amitini and amitinae; and those males and females who are born of sisters, consobrini and consobrinae, as if born of sisters; but most people call all of these consobrini, as Trebatius does.
sub hac appellatione nominum personae cadunt sedecim hae. patrui filius, item filia bifariam sicut supra numerantur (nam patris mei frater esse potest uel ex patre solo uel etiam ex matre sola): amitae filius, item filia: auunculi filius, item filia: materterae filius, item filia, amita auunculo matertera acceptis duplici intellectu secundum eandem rationem.
Under this designation of names fall these sixteen persons: the son of a paternal uncle, likewise the daughter, are counted in a twofold way as above (for my father's brother can be either from the father only or also from the mother only); the son of a paternal aunt, likewise the daughter; the son of a maternal uncle, likewise the daughter; the son of a maternal aunt, likewise the daughter, with paternal aunt, maternal uncle, and maternal aunt being received in a double understanding according to the same reasoning.
fratris sororisque nepos ac neptis eodem gradu sunt: sed et frater, item soror, neposue et neptis dupliciter accepti continebunt personas sedecim sic. fratris eodem patre nati nepos ex filio nepos ex filia fratris eadem matre, alio patre nati nepos ex filio nepos ex filia fratris eodem patre nati neptis ex filio neptis ex filia fratris alio patre eadem matre nati neptis ex filio neptis ex filia eademque causa octo personae efficient, ut aliae octo accedunt ex sorore natorum nepotes neptesque et similiter numerantur a nobis.
The grandson and granddaughter of a brother and a sister are in the same degree: but both brother, likewise sister, or grandson and granddaughter, being received in a twofold way, will contain sixteen persons as follows: the grandson from a son of a brother born of the same father, the grandson from a daughter; the grandson from a son of a brother born of the same mother but another father, the grandson from a daughter; the granddaughter from a son of a brother born of the same father, the granddaughter from a daughter; the granddaughter from a son of a brother born of another father but the same mother, the granddaughter from a daughter; and by the same cause these eight persons will bring about that another eight are added of the grandsons and granddaughters born of a sister, and they are similarly counted by us.
fratris autem mei nepos neptisque me patruum magnum appellant: sororum fratrumque meorum nepotes neptesque, item mei inter se consobrini sunt.
Moreover, the grandson and granddaughter of my brother call me paternal great-uncle; the grandsons and granddaughters of my sisters and brothers, likewise my own, are mutually consobrini to one another.
abnepos, abneptis: hi sunt pronepotis proneptis filius filia, nepotis neptisue nepos neptis, filii filiaeue pronepos proneptis, nepote uel ex filio nato uel ex filia, nepte uel ex filio nata uel ex filia acceptis, ut ad singulas personas gradu descendamus sic.
The great-great-grandson, great-great-granddaughter: these are the son or daughter of a great-grandson or great-granddaughter, the grandson or granddaughter of a grandson or granddaughter, the great-grandson or great-granddaughter of a son or daughter, with the grandson being received as born either of a son or of a daughter, and the granddaughter as born either of a son or of a daughter, so that we may descend by degree to individual persons as follows: son - grandson - great-grandson - great-great-grandson, son - grandson - great-grandson - great-great-granddaughter, son - grandson - great-granddaughter - great-great-grandson, son - grandson - great-granddaughter - great-great-granddaughter, son - granddaughter - great-grandson - great-great-grandson, son - granddaughter - great-grandson - great-great-granddaughter, son - granddaughter - great-granddaughter - great-great-grandson, son - granddaughter - great-granddaughter - great-great-granddaughter.
filius nepos pronepos abnepos filius nepos pronepos abneptis filius nepos proneptis abnepos filius nepos proneptis abneptis filius neptis pronepos abnepos filius neptis pronepos abneptis filius neptis proneptis abnepos filius neptis proneptis abneptis similiter hae personae enumerabuntur proposita filia et sic fient sedecim.
Similarly these persons will be enumerated if a daughter is proposed, and thus they will become sixteen.
