The Idio Family

How do you keep separate the Idio family?

Only an idiot with an idiosyncrasy for idioms can answer that to suit the ideology cousin.

Idiot: not too bright.
Idiom: a natural way to speak with someone who knows the language.
Idiosyncrasy: quirk, passion, perhaps  obsession even.
And the cousin? Ideology claims “the ideal”.
