(The word 'cercano' can refer to a close relative in the sense of kinship, which does not have a single, direct translation in English.)
Refers to a relative or someone with whom one has a close personal relationship, such as a family member or a very close one. It often implies a deep bond of kinship or affinity, where 'close one' or 'kinsman' might be approximations, but the nuance of 'cercano' as a noun for a person within one's immediate, trusted circle is a distinct concept.
