Adik-beradik Kuyuk

Love love love this pic. Taken from Fabmom's blog. She took this pic in Gaya Street Sunday market.
Last week I was talking to an elderly lady, and she was explaining how this person is related to another, and she found it so difficult to explain the relationship (very complicated family tree). I was on the verge of migraine trying to understand what she was explaining. When suddenly she shouted, they are related through "saudara anjing"! (direct translation to English - dog relation).
I nearly choked on my kueh cakui at that. I found it so funny coz i never knew such term existed. Then later that day, when we had tea party at fabmom's, i mentioned that term, and she said yes Brunei's term is "adik beradik kuyuk" ! Yes people the term exists.
"Adik-beradik Kuyuk" or "Saudara Anjing" is a term used to describe siblings with the same mother but different father. Phewww, what a simple explanation kan hahahahahahahaha.
Still, the pic above is so appropriate for the term.
