一个人可能有"brother"或者"sister"。我们也可以叫他们"siblings"。"Mom" 和"Dad"是对"parents"的称呼。他们也可以有一个或者两个"sibling"。妈妈的姐妹是"Aunt";爸爸的兄弟是"Uncle"。如果他们有孩子，他们是你的 "cousins"。 John: "Do you have any siblings?" 你有兄弟姐妹吗? Sam: "No, I am an only child. What about you?" 没有，我是独生子。你呢? John: "I have 2 brothers and a sister!" 我有2个兄弟和1个姐妹。 Sam: "Wow, a big family... I would have liked a sister" 哇噢，好大一家子...我也想要有1个姐妹。 John: "Yes, my brothers are both married and have kids. Family gatherings can be quite lively" 是啊，我的哥哥们都结婚了，有孩子了。家庭聚会总是很活泼热闹。 Parents of parents are called "grandparents" and the families of people we marry are our "-in-laws". The person you used to be married to is an "ex". And should you remain married it's simply "husband" or "wife". 父母的父母叫做"grandparents"，和我们结婚的人的家里人是我们的"-in-laws"。你之前的结婚对象叫做"ex"。如果你结婚了，就是 "husband" 或者"wife"。 Last, what does your family do for fun together? You might want to talk about "public holidays", "hobbies" and "likes". Maybe your family enjoys "picnicking" or "riding bikes". |
