A quick definition of relation:

A relation is someone who is connected to you by blood or marriage. They can be your parents, siblings, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, or even your spouse's family. A blood relative is someone who shares the same ancestors as you, while a collateral relative is someone who is not in your direct line of descent, like a cousin. A relative by affinity is someone who is related to you only because of a marriage. For example, your spouse's siblings or parents are your relatives by affinity. A relative of the half blood is someone who shares only one common ancestor with you, like a half-sibling.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: A relation is a person who is connected to another person by blood or marriage.

Examples:

  • Blood relative: A person who shares an ancestor with another person, such as a parent, sibling, or grandparent.
  • Collateral relative: A relative who is not in the direct line of descent, such as a cousin or aunt/uncle.
  • Relative by affinity: A person who is related through marriage, such as a spouse's family members.
  • Relative of the half blood: A collateral relative who shares only one common ancestor, such as a half-sibling.

These examples illustrate the different types of relationships that exist between people. Blood relatives share genetic material and are connected through their family tree. Collateral relatives are connected through a shared ancestor, but not in a direct line of descent. Relatives by affinity are connected through marriage, and relatives of the half blood share only one parent or grandparent.
