Editing Teip (section)

==Subdivisions==
The teip has its own subdivisions, in order of their progressive nesting, the ''{{lang|ce|vaer}}'', the ''{{lang|ce|gar}}'', and the ''{{lang|ce|neqe}}''. The ''{{lang|ce|neqe}}'' consists of households sharing the same family name, while the ''{{lang|ce|gar}}'' is a number of ''{{lang|ce|neqe}}'' units that together form a common lineage, however that is not always the case.<ref name=Jaimoukha91>{{cite book|title=The Chechens: A Handbook|author=Amjad Jaimoukha|editor=Nicholas Awde|page=91}}</ref> The basic social unit, meanwhile, was the household, consisting of the extended family spanning three or four generations, referred to as the ts'''a'' or the ''{{lang|ce|dözal}}'', with married daughters usually living with in the household of their spouse. Brothers would share the same land and livestock.<ref name=Jaimoukha91/>
