adj. proportionate, comparative; connected, associated; only gaining significance through a relationship to something else

Pogledajte ove sinonime za relative. Da li bi vam nešto odgovaralo u smislu, Veličina je srazmerna, ili proporcionalna ili odgovarajuća ? Dobro je da imam tako krupne (visoke) velike rođake. Ne znam da li je to smisao i kako bi se elegantnije prevelo da i na hrvatskom izgleda kao igra reči.
