Learn English – She’s a twin to her brother? Is it correct

questionssentence-construction

There are two questions, quite similar.

I know the word twin which means one of the twins. Now, while introducing a girl to my friend, I want to say, "she's a twin" but in this sentence only, I want to tell that who is the other twin of that twins.

She's a twin to her brother OR She's a twin to her sister

Is it fine? Now the second question…

Do I need to put other/another in this case?

She (A) and her brother (B) are twins. She has one more brother (C) but while introducing, she's with her non-twin brother (C). Should I say…

She's a twin to her another/other brother?

Is that okay? If not, how do we say that?

Best Answer

These are all good options:

  • Anne is Bob's twin.
  • She is Bob's twin sister.
  • Bob is her twin brother.
  • Meet Anne, and her brother Charlie. Their brother Bob is over at the pub. Bob is Anne's twin.
  • Meet Anne, and her brother Charlie. Their brother Bob is over at the pub. Anne and Bob are twins.

An introduction might go like this:

  • Maulik (to Anne and Charlie, and gesturing towards Sarah): Anne and Charlie, I'd like you to meet my cousin Sarah.
  • Anne (to Sarah): Pleased to meet you.
  • Charlie (to Sarah): Pleased to meet you.
  • Maulik (to Sarah, and gesturing towards Anne): Sarah, this is Anne...
  • Sarah (to Anne): My pleasure.
  • Maulik (gesturing towards Charlie): and her brother Charlie...
  • Sarah (to Charlie): Pleased to meet you.
  • Maulik (to Sarah, and gesturing towards the pub): Their brother Bob is over at the pub. Anne and Bob are twins.
