A big brother came to the rescue of his 7-year-old sister when their dad was nowhere to be found the night of their father-daughter dance.

In a viral Facebook post from Feb. 29, mom Trelysia Hamerter said her daughter’s father failed to show up for their father-daughter dance two years in a row.

“This is the 2nd year that my daughter’s father stood her up for the Daddy/daughter dance,” Hamerter wrote of the heartbreaking moment for her daughter, Skylar.

“She cried because she had her heart set on going,” she continued. “I felt so bad because there was nothing I could do because I’m not a male.”

Skylar was looking forward to the event because she wanted to prove to her classmates that her father was part of her life, her mother said.

“This year she comes to me ahead of time and says, ‘Mommy, I want my dad to come with me to the dance. I don’t want grandpa. I want my dad, I want everyone to know I have a dad,’ ” Hamerter recalled to Today .

Just days before the dance was to be held, Skylar’s father stopped answering phone calls, and it was apparent he would miss the dance for a second year, her mom explained.

A day before the dance, Hamerter’s 11-year-old son Christian heard what was happening, and decided to take their father’s place.

“Her big brother stepped in and said he’d take her because he wanted his sister to know that she deserves a man keeping his word and making her feel special,” Hamerter wrote on Facebook. “Y’all I literally cried.”

Skylar’s father never showed, so Christian accompanied his sister to the dance — showing her classmates that she had the best brother in the world.

Hamerter was nothing short of proud of her son’s loving gesture for his sister.

“Just know,” she said , “that I’m raising someone a GREAT HUSBAND one day.”

Americans say this before Thanksgiving. When we say “the holidays,” we are talking about all the special days at the end of the year – Thanksgiving, Christmas, Hanukkah, and New Year’s Eve. “Coming up” means coming or happening soon. We spend a lot of time with our families during the holidays, so this week, we’re going to learn what we call our relatives. By the way, “relatives” is a general word we use for people in our families. All of your relatives are related to you.
Your immediate family is very closely related to you. Immediate family includes parents (mother and father), siblings (brothers and sisters), and children (sons and daughters).

What's or Who's the daughter of your brother or sister?
What's the daughter of your brother or sister?
Who's the daughter of your brother or sister?
Question: Which one is correct? Or both are okay?
Or can I say "what do you call the daughter of your brother or sister? "
If you are seeking "your niece", then the question is " What do you call the daughter of your brother or sister? "
Also, "What is the daughter of your brother or sister called? "
What's the daughter of your brother or sister?
Who's the daughter of your brother or sister?
I'm wondering about what you are really asking with this question, lilyyang.
— What do you call the daughter of your brother or sister?
"What do you call," followed by a description of the word, is a general way of asking "What is the word for ... ?" So it will always be "what do you call ..." rather than "who do you call . . ." even if you're talking about the word for a person. Sometimes people will specifically ask "what do you call" instead of "what is the word for" when they know that different people have different words for the same thing.
This is also how a lot of bad jokes begin.
What do you call cheese that isn't yours?
Ha ha ha ha, thank you for sharing the joke, I like it. It makes learning English more fun.
Sorry about asking the question not clearly. Sometimes I have trouble asking a question.
Yes, I wanted to get the answer to "niece", "nephew" or "cousin", and I'm not sure what the questions are like.
1. A: What do you call the daughter of your brother or sister?
2. A: What's the son of your brother or sister called?
3. A: Who's the child of your aunt or uncle?
So only number 1 is a correct question?
1. "What do you call [this]" is generally best, in my opinion.
2. "What [is this] called?" is also fine.
3. I wouldn't use this wording for this kind of question, but rather (as khardy has already explained):
"What is the child of your aunt or uncle called?" or "What do you call the child of your aunt or uncle?"
In some languages, you have to distinguish between the son or daughter of your aunt or uncle, but luckily you don't have to worry about that in English. They're all called cousins.
In Dutch it's simpler and yet more complicated. Your nieces and your female cousins are all called your nichten (or nichtjes); your nephews and your male cousins are all called your neven (or neefjes). So in some places they make the distinction by who you are: if you're an uncle (oom), you call your nieces and nephews oomzegger(tje)s (uncle-callers); if you're an aunt (tante), you call your nieces and nephews tantezegger(tje)s (aunt-callers).
Yes, you are right. In Chinese, we have different words for uncle, aunt, nephew, niece and cousin if it's from your father's side or mother's side. It's very complicated.
We wouldn’t actually say, “What’s/Who’s the daughter of your brother or sister?”, but rather, Who’s your niece?/What’s your niece’s name?/What’s your niece called?
Who are your nieces?/What are your nieces’ names?/What are your nieces called?
If asking about the daughter of a certain, specific brother, you would ask:
Who’s your brother’s daughter?/What’s your brother’s daughter called?/What‘s the name of your brother’s daughter?/What’s your brother’s daughter’s name?
Who’s your sister’s daughter?/What’s your sister’s daughter called?/What’s the name of your sister’s daughter?/ What’s your sister’s daughter’s name?
(Use ‘nephew/s‘ for male child/children of someone’s sibling/s )
And of course, if you ask about the nieces of several sisters combined 🤣:
Who are the daughters of your sisters?/ What are your sisters’ daughters called?/What are the names of your sisters’ daughters?
Or...the individual brother could have more than one daughter...🤣🤣:
What are your brother’s daughters’ names? And so on. 😁
I think you're overcomplicating it slightly for the OP! The answer to the orginal question is that who is correct and what is incorrect.
I know. I was in a silly mood. 😜 But it might be useful for someone 😁
The correct way to ask about the word that refers to the daughter of one's sibling is "What do you call the daughter of your brother or sister?".
"Who's the daughter of your brother?" is a correct way to ask about the identity of an individual.
The first sentence is not the correct way to ask about someone's identity or name, and it is an awkward way to ask what the relationship is called.
Is it okay to use "what's.......... called?" or "how do you call......?" these two sentence structures?
Probably either, but "what's ... called?" or "what do you call ..." might sound more natural.
A: What do you call the daughter of your brother or sister?
A: What's the son of your brother or sister called?
A: Who's the child of your aunt or uncle?
I want to get the answer to "niece", "nephew" or "cousin", so are the questions correct?
