常见的家庭称呼

今天看到一篇介绍关于家庭成员称呼的文章，觉得还是少了些精髓。在这简单说明一下常用的称呼。

常见的家庭称呼

父母亲parent, father, mother,

爷爷奶奶 grand father, grand mother. grandpa/grandma in spoken English如果想区分爷爷还是外公的话，可以简单的说my father's father. 正式的表达方式my paternal father. 母亲一方的用maternal.一般会在家庭成员表中使用 My maternal grandpa always goes watch a movie with my litter sister.我外公好喜欢带我的小妹妹去看电影。兄弟姐妹sibling.

-How many siblings do you have?

-Only one younger sister.

-How many years are you apart?

-She is 5 years younger than me.

叔叔阿姨Uncle Sam(美国)， aunt Lisa, aunt美式发音是/ant/,蚂蚁一样的发音。大表姐，小堂弟cousin不管男女都是这个哦。那表兄弟的儿子应该怎么称呼呢，可以说That little toddler is my cousin's son. 或者直接说He is my second-cousin.Nephew,niece外甥，外甥女
