Many Spanish speakers make a few common mistakes when learning family vocabulary:
- Parents vs. Fathers: In Spanish, ‘padres’ can mean both ‘parents’ and ‘fathers’. In English, parents means mum そして dad. Fathers means two or more fathers. Always use parents for ‘mum and dad’.
- Cousin gender: In Spanish, ‘primo’ is male and ‘prima’ is female. In English, cousin is used for both boys and girls. You do not change the word.
