Examples: Bolian male Rett is in a group marriage with Vott (male), Nixx (female), and Slass (female). Rett and Nixx produce children. The children would call Rett Adahh and Nixx would be Mibu. Vott would be Adahh-No and Slass would be Mibu-Ahno. Rett leaves the household. He immediately becomes Im-Adahh. Female Tivv joins the household, primary with Nixx, and brings her older children. Tivv would be Mibu-Ahno and her children would be Sarndah to Rett and Nixx’s offspring. The younger children would call the older ones Sirma-Dah. | Examples: Bolian male Rett is in a group marriage with Vott (male), Nixx (female), and Slass (female). Rett and Nixx produce children.
