Phew!! That was something. Imagine the scene of a Punjabi family reunion!!

But fret not. Most of the times, a simple Uncle Ji and Auntie Ji would do though calling someone by the exact relation has its own charm.

P.S.: Don't forget to put Ji (ਜੀ/) after every word for relative. It's what would separate a sophisticate from a rube.
