2--My brother-in-law is having a small get-together at his house and he invited me.
 
1--Is it a family thing or just friends?
 
2--A bit of both. Some cousins, aunts and uncles will be there, but also some friends from the neighborhood.
 
1--Is your great uncle Rick going to be there? He is really funny.
 
2--Yeah he is going to be there with his step-son and his ex-wife.
 
1--You mean your sister?
 
2--No, Rick is actually my great uncle, so he is my grandmother's brother.
 
1--You lost me.
 
2--I'll explain later, let's go.

1--这周末你做什么？
2--我姐夫要在他家开个聚会，并且他邀请了我。
1--那是你家庭的还是朋友间的聚会？
2--都有吧。一些表兄妹，姨妈和舅舅会来，但是还有邻居的朋友。
1--你的了不起的瑞克叔祖父会去那儿吗？他很幽默。
2--是的，他会和他的养子和他的前妻去。
1--你是说你的表妹吗？
2--不，事实上瑞克不是我的叔祖父，他是我外婆的弟弟。
1--你把我弄糊涂了。
2--等会再解释给你听，我们走吧。
