Second cousins then.

That would still make Ariel his cousin as well. They would just be second cousins.

cousins *once removed*

they're first cousins once removed, just replace "you" with hercules and "your first cousin" with triton, which would make "your 1st cousin once removed" ariel. you could also griffeni's picture and replace second cousins with 1st cousin once removed, as second cousin is just the incorrect terminology

It would be first cousins once removed

Yes, you're right about Triton. But then, what word would be appropriate to describe Ariel and Herc's relationship? Cousin seems to fit that bill nicely.

look here you ignorant ****

no no no its first cousin once removed, not second cousin
second cousin means you share a great grandparent

1st cousin once removed, second cousin would be hercules' child (if he had one) to ariel.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I think that if Hercules had a child, that child would be Ariel's second cousin, as Hercules and Triton are cousins. Hercules is in a different generation to Ariel, so they can't be cousins or second cousins. The best explanation or term would be something along the lines of 'Second Uncle'.

yea but if you looked at the commets all the way you would see that im just using this to clear that triton is not hercs uncle

I just based my comment on the comment you commented.

i dont even know whats happaning anymore so have a gif on the ghost busters dancing






and dont clear up whats happaning i dont want to know

People often mis-suse technically to mean "almost" or "close to", or something like that.

As opposed to?

I'm just confused by the first poster's reaction.

"Hercules and Ariel are technically cousins."
"Actually, they really are cousins."
"OMFG REALLY?"

Like what's so different?

Oh I see
The awkward gingers thing was supposed to imply that they are cousins just based on that
but then the next paragraph proves that they are actually cousins beyond the coincidence that they're both awkward and ginger

Oh, that's what they meant. Makes more sense now.

well she is his second cousin i believe hence the technical part

first cousins once-removed.

Let's compromise: Second cousins once removed.

They are separated by one generation, making them once removed, and their closest mutual ancestor is three generations away (father of Zeus and Poseidon), making them second cousins.

They are related.

Because I think you always count from the youngest generation

If they're not cousins, then who was phone and how did he can the power?

drugs are bad...mmmkay?

Your balls need to touch the ceiling to move on to the next level banana fart penis so wastedright noah

Holy **** , that gif cracked me up.

No it doesn't because to Ariel would be second cousins with Herc's child. They're first cousins once-removed.

My cousins daughter is my second cousin and I'm her cousin once removed.
I'm pretty sure.

yo wats with this white people shiit in mexican families if they aint your brother/sister or aunt/uncle their your cousins aha

Theyre all a kind of cousin... I think. I have some Australian family members and they're a lot pickier about it

not shopped, they didn't have cell phones in ancient china

I think the only people they had problems with ******* where mothers

I'm curious as to how that's hot and also scared.

First cousin once removed.

No Hercules and Ariel would be second cousins.

So first cousin, once removed? I think I finally understand that now

Refer to comment #97, and maybe pick up a dictionary and read the definition of second cousins.

actually he can't be an uncle unless he was triton's brother.

He still can because he was born in Triton's generation, not Ariel's. First cousins from ancient definition are still considered brothers or kin. So she would still give him the same respective title as Triton would to Uncle Zeus, or Hercules would do to Uncle Poseidon. But generally, he would not be her cousin, not first or second.

You Sir/Ma'am, Would be correct

No, no he's not. They'd be second cousins. The children of your cousins are also your cousins, you are not their uncle. Only the children of your siblings children are your nieces and nephews.

Wow, okay, allow me to explain to you what defines generations in a family tree and what first cousins and second cousins are. Now when two brothers have kids with their respective partners, those offspring of two brothers become first cousins. But when those two brothers have first cousins who also have kids, those cousin's kids become the first set of kids second cousins. Hercules and Ariel have a generation gap by means of the fact that he was born in line with her father, not her. It still makes him her uncle, not her cousin. You can continue to argue this with me but that is literally the definition in every dictionary of a second cousin.

en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cousin#Cousin_chart

While I am mistaken, as he'd be first cousin once removed, it's still not a ******* uncle.

Yes, but Ariel and Hercules are 1st-cousins once removed, which is still cousins.

yeah, no one said triton was his brother

Read it again.
