What do we call a younger sister in Punjabi?

In Punjabi language an elder sistr is “Bey_bey بے بے” but in some districts it is used for mother and an elderly lady ,its diminutive form “beybdiبے بڑی” means little sister. In district Jhang, it is still used in its pristine form. I still remember a street squabble between two women, A asked B, “sed hun beybdi nou سد ہن بے بڑی نوں” means call out your little sister. In colloquial communication “Niki/chhoti paain /bhain نکی/چھوٹی بھین is the most common.P.S. In bygone days early age marriages were common in Punjab and the children of these young parents used to call them Bey_bey and Lala لالہ (means elder brother ), in my own family, my father and uncle uesd to call my grandfather Lala, even I also used to call him Lala.

How do kids call their father, mother, grandparents, or sister, in your language?

We are Hungarian.Mother: anya or anyu; occasionally mamaFather: apa or apu; occasionally papaSibling: testvér (it’s fun to break this down: test means body, vér is blood), tesóSister: younger is húg, older is nővér (fun fact: nuns and nurse are also called nővér)Brother: younger is öcs, older is bátyGrandmother: nagyi, nagymama (nagy means great, grand, big, etc.), mamaGrandfather: nagypapa, papaParents of the grandparents are dédimama (often shortened as dédi) and dédipapaGrandparents of grandparents are rare, but they are ükanya and ükanya. My first son has a picture with the maternal grandmother of my father; she was 99 at the time and died one year later. One of her life goals was to meet her “ükunoka”, grand-grand child.In our family we are anya and apa, sibling is tesó (short for testvér, more informal but widely used), we barely use sister or brother. Both grandmothers are nagyi, prefixed with their names (Ági nagyi and Icu nagyi). Grandfathers are papó (often used for non relative old men) and papi. Unfortunately, none of our grandfathers are alive, and our grandmothers are dédi for our children.Edit: my wife mentioned why the question mentions only “upward” relatives, so let's go downward, too.Child is gyerek, children are gyerekekDaughter is lány (girl is also lány)Son is fiú. Boy is also fiú; my boyfriend is “a fiúm” in teenage slang, my son is “a fiam”. Fun fact, archaic Hungarian calls chicks (small chicken) sons of a hen, “a tyúk fia”Grandchild is unoka. We don’t have separate words for granddaughter and grandsonCousins are unokatestvér; etymology says that’s because their closest common ancestors are the grandparents.Niece and nephew are unokaöcs and unokahúg. This is a bit strange, as öcs and húg suggest they are in the same age range, and unoka suggests they have the same grandparents. Hungarian is a strange language.Child of a grandchild is dédunoka, grandchild of a grandchild is ükunoka. See what we did there? (dédanya/dédapa vs. dédunoka) However, there is no dédunokatestvér or ükunokatestvér (I always wondered why), they are másodunokatestvér and harmadunokatestvér (másod and harmad means second and third)Aunt and uncle was missing from my original list, they are nagynéni and nagybácsi, respectively. Néni and bácsi are also used for elderly women and men, in general.

How do you say “God bless you” in Urdu?

Bless means Give or Grant, so the exact translation will be “Khuda aap ko barkat day” in Urdu it will be “خدا آپ کو برکت دے”. In literal meaning it means “May God keep you happy” and its translated as “Khuda app ko khush rakhay” in Urdu it will be “خدا آپ کو خوش رکھے”

Help with Bengali Vocabulary?

Bengali or Bangla word 'Fufu' means she is your father's sister (Aunt). Bengali Hindu people will call her "Pishi" or "Pishi-ma"

You are right that 'Chachu' or 'Cha-cha' is a Bangla word for meaning Uncle for Muslim and 'Jetha' in Hindu. Your father's younger brother Uncle is 'Kaka' or 'Kakka' for Muslims and 'Kakku' Hindus.

'Dada' has two meaning. In Bengali Hindu communities anyone elder (including sibling or cousins who are older than you) is called 'Dada' with revere. But among Bengali Muslims 'Dada' is referred to and the father of your father (paternal grandfather). For Maternal grandfather it is Nana for Muslims.

'Mama' is maternal Uncle and his wife is 'Mami' for Aunt here.

Hope above suffice.
