Uso means brother or sister. It's a bit complicated but I'll try my best to explain...
You would only call your sister your "uso" if youwere a girl.
You would only call your brother your "uso" if youwere a boy.
If you are a girl, you would refer to your brother as your "tuagane".
If you are a boy, you would refer to your sister as your "tuafafine".
Uso is a term used to refer to Samoans as a brother, whether they're related or not. Often used as a term of respect.
