Re: Family relations in Urdu

Urdu and Hindi are so close that the line is very fine. Words Sans, Sasur, Jaith are all Hindi derived their etymology being Sanskrit.

Wife's elder sister : Derh Saas..
Never understood why she is called 1.5 sass...shouldnot she be half saas.

Re: Family relations in Urdu

I've never heared the term "Derh Saas". I thought that the wife's sister is called Saali, regardless of whether she's the elder or younger sister.

Wife of wife´s brother - Saalehaar
