What is your brother-in-law called if he is your husband’s identical twin?

Ok, this is the most complicated family tree I’ve ever met…I stopped
thinking after the first 25 seconds :))) just watched the entire video
without any effort….?

Growing up as a half Chinese, half Filipino, I always have difficulty
trying to figure out what to call relatives in Chinese. In the Chinese
culture, each member of the family has its own *title*. We’ll probably
just call our parent’s sister or brother, auntie or uncle in the western
world but in the Chinese culture, you call them differently based on which
side of the family and whether they’re first, second, etc.
This video should help people, just like me, who still have to figure out
what to call my wife’s 2nd uncle from her mother side. To make matter more
*interesting*, this is in Mandarin. For folks who speaks Fookien or
Cantonese – man, good luck.?

Well at least with this system, I don’t need to be awkward and be like “How
is this person related to me again, with details please”? It can be awkward
asking around like that xD
But ummm, wasn’t this system made to determine inheritance or something?
There was a logistical reasoning for this system (I think)?

I want to learn Arabic and Chinese. I took a Chinese class all the way back
in the sixth grade and learned nothing aside from Ni-hao (hi).?

aunts, their husbands and their kids.?

Wow so there is a unique name for every relative based on relative age and
blood/marriage relation 0_o. Now I know why people say mandarin is hard to
learn.?
verm Zhang

David Sutherland
Great! Wish the Chinese names were pronounced a bit louder and more
articulately… she is reading it out of breath at each punch line.?
DivinexSerenity
I’m Vietnamese and thank goodness it isn’t as nearly complicated as this!
Phew~?
Jerry Wong
It’s is too confusing that is why I say hi to most of them because 99% of
the time you really don’t know what to call them unless they are close to
you?

this only exists in east Asia culture, I think. I have difficulty in
remembering the callings since I studied in different cities far away from
hometown when I was a kid. Usually all family members get together only in
spring festival, one meet in one year. ?
Frost Biter
I never care about this though I’m chinese ?
Jenny W
Even though I know all of these, I still got confused because she was
saying it so fast.?
Stefan Li
