Inconsistent relationiship type names

[andrewaylett]

The list of relationship types appears to be trying to show both the male and female variants if they're different. But the different varients are not always consistent:

Alt: a screenshot of Monica's "This person is..." drop-down, showing a list of relationship types.

From the screenshot, you can see examples like "child/daughter" and "spouse/wife". It's not entirely clear to me whether this is a translation issue (I'm using en_GB) or a code issue?

Hi @andrewaylett,

no, there's indeed some issue with relationships, also in other languages. I'm noticing them too, when using German.

Sometimes I have 'daughter' for the females and 'child' for the males. Same with e.g. 'sister' and 'sibling', 'stepdaughter' and 'stepchild' or 'mother' and 'parent'.

But those differences also are not consistent for male and female! Sometimes it's 'mother', sometimes it's 'parent' for same sex and even same person (e.g. my Mum is my 'mother', but my brother's 'parent').

So I suppose this rather being some kind of coding issue than a translation issue.

It looks like this is a duplicate of #5956, which should get corrected with the next release 😁 If it is, @wolf-rainer you are correct that it was a coding issue.
