Notes 注释1 There are many words to describe specific relatives, e.g. uncle / uncle; aunt / aunt; nephew / nephew; niece / niece; cousin / cousin.
有很多词语可以描述具体的关系,例如uncle / 叔叔、伯父、舅舅、姨夫、姑父;aunt / 婶婶、伯母、舅母、姑母; nephew / 外甥、侄子; niece / 外甥女、侄女; cousin /表兄弟姐妹、堂兄弟姐妹
2 Remember the word still / still to describe something which someone is continuing to do, e.g. He still lives at home / He still lives at home; He’s still at high school / He's still at high school.
记住still /仍然是用来描述某人继续做的某事。例如:He still lives at home / 他仍然住在家里; He’s still at high school /他还在上中学。
