so my fiance calls his mom, “mom” and his dad “dad” i just cannot call them that as i am way tooooo cultured. so im thinking to call his mom mummi or ami idk and his dad im completely stumped.
what are some names i could call them? is it weird to call them something my fiance doesnt?
calling them uncle/aunty is out of the question, i can never do that
thanks for the help!
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
I call mine Aunty/uncle and he calls mine Aunty/Uncle too.. Why is that out of the question? Did you ask your fiance what he would like you to call them?
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
in my family thats considered really bad bc ur not treating ur mil and fil like ur parents...but i know a lot of ppl say aunty/uncle...i guess my family is a bit more traditional... so yeah cant do that. he wants me to call them whatever i want but i dont like saying mom and dad the english way its weird for me

Re: what to call you saas and sassur
I can understand why you call your saas and susar, Aunty/uncle,but why does he call your saas and susar, Aunty/uncle 
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
maamoon mami
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
It luks nice when u call them same as your husband does.
However, to be honest i think whether you call them ami/abu, mom/dad or even uncle/aunty is not that important. What is more important is that you have same kind of respect and love for them as you do for your own parents :).
p.s i DID NOT say same amount of love/respect :p
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
kind of respect and love for them as you do for your own parents :).
That is not humanly possible.
Coming back to the question, most people in our family call them uncle/aunty but my mom called her's ami/abu.
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
hmm Why 
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
Because generally, among the Genus Homo, a person’s parents and children are more important to him/her than any other individual.
Most people don’t even love their siblings as much as they love their mom or dad so how then can you love two old fandoos as much as your parents?
I never though it would need such a lengthy explanations, its pretty obvious.

Only if you had read my post carefuly, you could have done without your detailed yet irrelevant reply :) I especially mentioned that i was not talking about same amount of love or respect for the inlaws.
I talked about same kind of love and respect and i hope you are old enough to understand the difference between the two :) If not, you shouldn't even be bothering with these topics as of now.
Btw, for some people its not even possible to give same kind of respect and love to their inlaws esp when they are thought of as old fandoos :).
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
i suggest wait till you get married

Same "kind of" and same "amount of" are pretty much the same thing lol :p
Like if I said, "He and I get the same kind of money", the phrase "kind of" does not mean we both get paid in Rak Rupees lol, but anyways, let;s just leave it :)

To be brutally honest, I'll respect my in-laws (or for that matter anyone else in this world) only if I like them or if dis-respecting them will harm me (in any way whatsoever).
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
u can call them almost-mom and almost-dad
Re: what to call you saas and sassur
My inlaws are quite conservative and traditonal. my husband call his parents bay and abba so I call same , whereas my husbnad calls my parents mama and papa..
Re: what to call you saas and sassur

Re: what to call you saas and sassur
anything as long as you mean it from the heart :halo:..ye kya uper uper se ji ammi (ander se uff this buddhi can’t get enough of giving me chores) 
I think calling them what your husband calls them looks very nice
