Vad betyder affine inom lingvistik ?

In law, affinity relatives by marriage are known as affines. More commonly, they are known as in-laws or family-in-law, with affinity being usually signified by adding "-in-law" to a degree of kinship. This is standard for the closest degrees of kinship, such as father-in-law, daughter-in-law, brother/sister-in-law, etc., but is frequently omitted in the case of more extended relations. As uncle and aunt are frequently used to refer indifferently to friends of the family, the terms may be used without specifying whether the person is a cognate or affine. Similarly, the spouse of a cousin may not be called a relation at all or may be referenced as a "cousin by marriage" https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Affinity_(law)#Terminology
