- All secondaries Manual: SISTRIX returned no expandable related-keyword set beyond the primary token.

## Notes

- **Anti-cannibalization:** Long-form BEEG mechanics (Fristen, §§ 15–18, Antrag Schriftform) stay in **lexikon/elternzeit**; this URL owns **Elternurlaub** as Umgangsbegriff + disambiguation.
