Inference If a person C is a male and childOf a person A, then person C is a “sonOf” person A. If a person B is a male and siblingOf a person A, then person B is a “brotherOf” person A. If a person C is a “sonOf” person A, and person B is a “brotherOf” person A, then person B is the “uncleOf” person C.
