如題。 我通常會用 God,例如:God-sister, God-brother, 等。但係"God"大過宗教性,並非我們中國人講的意義。而且契兄弟姐妹未必經過正式禮節,與神無關。那麼到英文應該點翻譯?

Please answer with supporting facts. Thank you!

畢竟文化不同,英語國家的人不會「契來契去」,所以英文裏沒有「契」的說法,而你說的「godbrother」就已經是類似的說法。
根據以下古德明的解釋,你也可以用「nominal」等來表示。總之就是沒有萬用而確切的翻譯。就如中文的「熱鬧」也是沒有萬用而確切的翻譯。

另,「stepbrother」或「stepsister」是「同父異母」或「同母異父」的兄弟姐妹。

契兄弟姐妹英文應該點譯?
As mentioned, God-sister, God-brother is the right word for 契兄弟姐妹.
And here, God, has nothing to do with religions.
