Hey everyone, do you know the above expression? Today's mini-lesson will explain it and I think it will be my last lesson this year as I am off to India in a few more days and need to start packing...
On my mother's side...
and
On my father's side...
are used when talking about your extended family. Your immediate family is one step from you: your parents, your kids, your brothers or sisters. Your extended family is everyone beyond that: your grandparents, your uncles, your aunts, your cousins, etc.
We use these expressions to specify WHICH grandmother we are talking about, your father's mother(father's side) or your mother's mother(mother's side).
Baba is my grandmother on my father's side.
I have 5 cousins on my mother's side.
Well everyone have a
Merry Christmas and a
Happy New Year~!
Phil
