Notes: , Functions as a specially marked subtype of the general category gurrumbaj (cf. also nganja`); normally at least one member of the relationship must be female. Dyadic form: nganngalhi-j pair consisting of a person and his or her nganngalha. For 2nd/3rd person possessor forms see ra-nganngarraj, ra-nganngari-yung. Note: The more general terms gurrumbaj and nganja` are commonly applied to actual or prospective children- or parents-in-law who can also be called nganngalha, but this latter term is ordinarily not generalised beyond a small number of persons for a given referent. Cf. also gajaa`i.
