Chinese family terms carry cultural meaning that English simply doesn’t mark. 奶奶 and 外婆 are both “grandma” in English — but in Chinese they tell you which side of the family she’s on. Teaching these distinctions early is one of the most culturally meaningful things you can do for your child’s Mandarin.

This set covers the 10 core family words: 爸爸, 妈妈, 爷爷, 奶奶, 哥哥, 姐姐, 弟弟, 妹妹, 儿子, 女儿.
