The kinship terms of Hindustani (Hindi-Urdu) differ from the English system in certain respects.[1] In the Hindustani system, kin terms are based on gender,[2] and the difference between some terms is the degree of respect.[3] Moreover, "In Hindi and Urdu kinship terms there is clear distinction between the blood relations and affinal relations."[4]

Kinship terms are also used for respect (e.g. 'older sister' for a woman one's own age or slightly older and the ubiquitous 'auntie' or 'uncle' in both Hindi/Urdu and English, especially but not exclusively used by children).
