'''Teip''' (also '''taip''' and '''taipa'''; [[Nakh languages|Vaynakh]] '''тайпа''' ''taypa'' {{IPA-cau|ˈtajpə|}}: ''family, kin, clan, tribe''<ref>Нохчийн-Оьрсийн словарь (Chechen-Russian Dictionary, A.G. Matsiyev, Moscow, 1961), ''also available online:'' [http://ingush.narod.ru/chech/dict/6/390.gif Чеченско-Русский словарь: “схьаIенадала-такхадала”]; ''and'' [http://ingush.narod.ru/lang/i-r.htm Ингушско-Русский словарь ''(online Ingush-Russian dictionary)''] {{webarchive|url=https://www.webcitation.org/69yj3iOJe?url=http://ingush.narod.ru/lang/i-r.htm |date=2012-08-17 }} {{ru icon}}</ref>) is a [[Chechnya|Chechen]] and [[Ingushetia|Ingush]] [[tribe|tribal]] organization or [[clan]], self-identified through descent from a common [[ancestor]] and geographic location. There are about 130-233 teips (though some sources state that there may be as many as 300). More than 20 teips originated from newcomers, in particular [[Caucasian Avars|Avars]], [[Kumyks]], [[Jews]], [[Georgians]], [[Russians]], [[Turkish people|Turks]]. The taips descending of non-Ingush or non-Chechen ancestors are called ''impure teips'' (in other languages: söli taypa, соьли тайпа). A teip's internal dynamic is based on [[honor]], and [[Feuds#Blood feuds/vendetta|blood feuds]] play a major role.
The teip membership and the [[tukkhum]] membership defined the social position of a Chechen. The lack of any affiliation of a person can be described as “This man has neither a teip nor a tukkhum”.
