Wrong Use Of The Words "Kid Sister" And "Kid Brother" by Jman06(m): 6:43pm On Jun 20, 2019 |
There are a lot of words and phrases which Nigerians Use wrongly and these include the words; "kid brother" and "kid sister". Please stop referring to your YOUNGER SISTER or YOUNGER BROTHER as " kid sister " or "kid brother" if they're no longer kids or if you're just a few years older than them. I have heard many people use such terms to refer to siblings whom they're just a few years older than and I think it's only proper if we put things in the right perspective. Your "kid sister" or "kid brother" is a sibling born when you're already grown into adulthood or adolescence at worst, not just any sibling who's younger than you.

Take the word Kid out completely. I think little brother or sister is even more appropriate. Kid means. A young goat. The meat of a young goat. A young antelope. Kid should be used when trying to explain behavioural eg. He acts like a kid (young person) My own take sha... 46 Likes 1 Share |
