What do you call your half cousin's stepchild? No, no, that seems too easy. What do you call your half cousin's husband's parents? Or your half cousin's husband's ex-wife?
Tell me that and I'll treat you to a beef patty. Or give you the monetary equivalent.
Half cousin's (second) husband and his parents are visiting today. From Chinar. Apparently, the ex lives close to us so it totally made sense to all of them to make the 40 minutes drive for all of us to get together. Lunch is going to be tons of fun.
Moi: I call the husband 'brother-in-law,' but what do I call his parents? Aunt and uncle? And what do I call the ex?
Mother: Just call her Sue.
Moi: Is that her name? Or is that the Chinese word?
