I really do not know if cousin sister is legal or not. All I can say is we've all been using it for ages!<BR/><BR/>KamalKamal Shahhttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10671037449347982821noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-4549007265359625492009-04-10T18:04:00.000+05:302009-04-10T18:04:00.000+05:30The very first sentence in this article popped something in my brain - "cousin sister".<BR/><BR/>I totally understand that there is no other possible way to precisely indicate that yoy are referring to a cousin of yours, who happens to be a female other than through this phrase. <BR/><BR/>Here in the US, they just do not use this phrase at all - just "cousin". How confusing and ambigous right??<BR/><BR/>Does english legally allow this phrase?<BR/><BR/>VinayAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-29876499826436838402009-04-09T22:10:00.000+05:302009-04-09T22:10:00.000+05:30I just laughed and laughed and could not stop.. thanks KamalNagarajnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-43311053646736394882009-04-09T22:08:00.000+05:302009-04-09T22:08:00.000+05:30I just laughed and laughed and could not stop.. thanks KamalAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4155770613355202151.post-66524015568274444832009-04-09T19:35:00.000+05:302009-04-09T19:35:00.000+05:30lol, you called him Godzilla!
