big sister, little sister, big brother, little brother
Answers:
If talking about your siblings to someone (Ex. My younger brother likes...), you would say:
[Kanji] [Hiragana] [Romaji] [English]
姉 -------------- あね -------- Ane -------- Older sister
妹 ------------- おとうと----- Omouto ---- Younger sister
兄 -------------- あに ---------- Ani -------- Older brother
弟 ------------- いもうと ----- Imouto ----- Younger brother
If talking about someone else's siblings ( or if are referring the your siblings themselves), you use:
[Kanji] [Hiragana] [Romaji] [English]
お姉さん ----- おねえさん --- Onee-san ---- Older sister
妹さん -------- いもうとさん -- Imouto-san -- Younger sister
お兄さん ----- おにいさん --- Onii-san ------ Older brother
弟さん -------- おとうとさん -- Otouto-san -- Younger brother
When addressing an older sibling, younger sibling often use more affectionate terms such as "Nee-san" or "Nee-chan" for an older sister and "Nii-san" or "Nii-chan" for an older brother. Older siblings always refer to younger siblings by their names.
big sister = oneesan (pronounced oh-neh-san)
little sister = imoto
big brother = oniisan
little brother = ototou
big sister - oonesan (read as: o-neh-sun)
litter sister - imoto (read as: ee-mo-toh)
big brother - oonisan (read: o-nii-sun)
little brother -ototo (read: o-toh-to )
"oneesan" is elder sister, "imouto" is little sister, but i went to ask.com and asked what big brother and little brother is in Japanese, and i couldn't come up with anything, maybe you could try!
hope that helped!
big sister is onii-chan
