A woman says, “She is my brother’s wife’s sister.” How is the woman related to the speaker?
Correct Answer :
Sister-in-law
Solution :
The correct option is Sister-in-law.
To determine the relation between the person being referred to and the speaker, let us break down the statement step-by-step:
1. "my brother’s wife": A person's brother's wife is their sister-in-law.
2. "sister" of my brother's wife: The sister of one's brother's wife is also broadly referred to as a sister-in-law (or in extended family relations, a sister-in-law).
Therefore, the woman is related to the speaker as a Sister-in-law.
