:blackeye:How can we translate into English?

Que es Pedro de Juan? How is Peter related to John?

A lo mejor hijo, pero en el siglo veinte uno, en algunos paises, esposo.
En ingles: Peter is John's son -- or spouse-- or significant other.

Ok, pero estaria bien how is Joh related to Peter?

poli November 17, 2010 05:30 AM

Most likely John is Peter's father.

What about 'relatives'? :thinking:

@Poli: I think Robin's question is rather how to ask about the kinship between people.

-- ¿Qué es tuyo Juan?
-- Es mi primo.

-- ¿Qué eres de María?
-- Soy su tía.

-- Juan está casado con María y la hermana de María está casada con Pedro. ¿Qué es Pedro de Juan?
-- Es su concuño (concuñado).
