Cultural Background
中文
在中国文化中，表姐妹通常指表兄妹的姐妹。称呼表姐妹的方式较为灵活，可以根据年龄、关系亲疏等进行选择。在正式场合，通常会使用“表姐”、“表妹”等称呼；在非正式场合，则可以使用“表姐”、“表妹”、“姐姐”、“妹妹”等更为亲密的称呼。
拼音
English
In English culture, "cousins" is the common term. There isn't a specific distinction like in Chinese based on whether the cousin is male or female or through the father or mother's side. The use of "cousin" is appropriate in both formal and informal settings unless there's a particularly close relationship warranting a more informal term like 'friend'.
