cousintax
/ˈkʌzənˌtæks/nounVerified NewAlso in: Cousinsteuer (Deutsch) · primosto (Español) · cousintaxe (Français)
The levy of help — moving furniture, driving to airports, assembling cabinets — that cousins owe one another on request.
The cousintax is paid in labor, not money, and it is assessed without notice. Refusing it costs goodwill; paying it earns credit that compounds quietly. The tax office is the family, and the audit is permanent.
Etym. — cousin + tax — kinship as a jurisdiction with its own levies.
Rel. — cousinpot · cousinchauffeur
Novelty check: APPROVE
