There are no words I’ve seen in these Medew Netcher dictionaries for aunt, uncle, niece, nephew, cousin, etc. The only kinship blood-related words I’ve seen are mother, father, son, daughter, sister, and brother.

That seems very much in alignment with how Nana Fu-Kiau explains family structure in Kindezi (the Kongo Art of Babysitting)

You have reminded me, there is an esssay that touches on the eurasian translation problem with kinship terms from early 2000s
