Abstracts

EN
The article discusses Czech kinship terminology in a group of Czech-speaking protestants who lived in the village of Voyvodovo (Bulgaria) in the years 1900–1950. The author uses data from the re-emigrants from Voyvodovo, who settled after 1950 in the border regions of Czechoslovakia, and from their descendants. Kinship terminology is analysed in categories of nuclear family, further collateral relatives, more distant relatives, affines and the extension of kinship terms. On the basis of a structural analysis of kinship terminology of the Voyvodovo Czechs, the author argues that it is possible to speak about a correlation between the kinship terminology used and the type of kinship reckoning or the size and structure of the family households. No significant influence of Bulgarian on the Czech kinship terminology of the Voyvodovo Czechs has been recorded.
