Less common family words
The family terms below are unlikely to come up in IELTS Listening tracks. Still, there is
at least some chance you’ll hear this vocabulary on the exam. Study this short list of
not-so-
common English family words, and you’ll be ready for them if they come up on
the test.
step
Just as “in-laws” are your relatives by current marriage, your “step” relatives are
relatives from previous marriages. For example, if a man marries a woman who
already has children, he becomes their step father, and they become his step
children. And if both a husband and wife have children from their previous
marriages, those children become each others’ step siblings.
great grandparents (great grandmother and great grandfather)
the parents of your grandparents
great grandchildren
the children of your grandchildren
