V. Read and translate the text “What is a family?”

We say a word ‘family’ so many times but we have never thought what is meant by it. Is it just your mom and day, your sisters and brothers? Or does it include uncles and aunts as well?

A family is a group of people who you are related to.

There are large and small families. The families that consist of 2 persons and that of fifty persons or even more than that.

Some situations take place in our lives when you happen to have no relatives or just one relative but that doesn’t mean that you don’t have a family of your own. Your dog or your cat may be your family. You may have a friend who is more like a family for you than you relatives.

So, a family is something that you love and take care of the most.

VI. Discuss the text given above with your group mate and answer the question:

WHAT DOES “A FAMILY” WORD MEAN TO YOU?
