My father-in-law was involved in drilling many of the oil wells before production commenced.
He was also a potential father-in-law.
More signicant was what the gift of cloaks symbolized: the restitution of respect and honor to the father-in-law lost by the son-in-law's immodest behavior and his deance of elders.
For my 73-year-old father-in-law in 2004, all the papers had been prepared.
The kinship nouns father-in-law, niece, sisterin-law, stepfather, stepmother, and stepsister are actually very infrequent, as is the body-part term milk tooth.
The son-in-law received the granary and storehouse ; his father-in-law got the three barns and a small sauna.
Two tickets get very expensive, so father-in-law only must go.
Such is the case in the various registers of respect which entail avoiding the name of the father-in-law and any word resembling it.
