Ea Pôk

Ea Pôk (also sometimes stylized as Ea Pok) is a term originating from the Mường language, an Austroasiatic language spoken primarily in Vietnam. It loosely translates to "grandmother's sister" or "great aunt." More specifically, it refers to a female relative who is the sister of one's grandmother (either maternal or paternal). The term highlights the specific kinship structure and terminology within Mường culture and is used to distinguish this relative from other types of aunts or older female relatives. The term emphasizes lineage and provides a specific marker within the family network. As a kinship term, its precise usage can vary slightly depending on the specific region or dialect of Mường spoken.
