How do you say 'You're the best sister-in-law' in Spanish?

"Sister-in-law" in Spanish is "cuñada". It is pronounced "coon-YAH-dah".


What is your relationship to your sister-in-law's sister?

If your sister-in-law is your spouse's sister, her brother is your spouse's brother and therefore is your brother-in-law, or perhaps your husband. If your sister-in-law is the wife of your brother, her brother is your brother's brother-in-law but is not related to you. The English language has no relationship term for the brother of your sibling's spouse.


What would you call sister in law's brother?

The relationship of the sibling of your sister-in-law or brother-in-law to you does not have a name in English. You could call them your brother- or sister-in-law if you want, or you can call them the brother or sister of your brother- or sister-in-law.


How is your mother-in-law's sister related to you?

Your mother-in-law's sister is your spouse's aunt but is not related to you.While in Western Culture Spouse's relations are ignored to be anything to you. But in Asian Culture a Mother in Law's Sister will be as Aunt to you as she is to your spouse. It kinda make more sense to me if you see is this way that your brother is considered to brother in law to your spouse, when we say in law we tend to look it only as spousal relation, but actually in law means that after the marriage as per law he/she is your brother or sister in the eyes of law. Thus adultery with in law is not only considered sin but also incestuous.


What would you call your sister in law's husband?

The English language has not special term for the husband of your sister-in-law. You woudl call him your "sister-in-law's husband."
