The article studies the Newar kinship system using both of the main methods of classifying kinship systems. One classifies according to the terms used for addressing one's cousins and the other classifies according to the terms which one uses for one's parents and their siblings. It includes three figures illustrating the Newari kinship system and a glossary with Newari kinship terminology. (Rajeev Ranjan Singh 2007-01-11)
