cousin

I'm a little stuck... Click here to teach me more about this clue!

'relative' is the definition.
(cousin is a kind of relative)

Can you help me to learn more?

(Other definitions for cousin that I've seen before include "US icon is an odd relative" , "Aunt/uncle's child" , "Kinsman, generally (archaic)" , "Family relative" , "An aunt's or uncle's child" .)
