any adult(read 15 years older atleast than me)who i dunno personally or any of my parents' friends would come in the uncle and aunty catagory.
then again hindi is such a confusing language...it took me years to learn what to call all my relations...
father's sister is called bua
mothers sister called masi
fathers sister husband called fufa
fathers older brother called tau
fathers younger brother called chacha
mothers brother is mama

now with my extended family's next generation coming up...i have to figure out what all the younglings are going to call me
