p.31 footnote refers to 'nouns of relationship' --- Does Tyberg mean a
family relationship such a daughter, mother, father, etc?

प्रिय Terrence,
Yes, nouns of relation, viz. mother, father, sister, brother इत्यादि show different forms. This sets them apart from other words. This is true among many ancient cultures and some modern ones too.
