This is not question about language but rather a question about sets to me She was the youngest of the two daughters of a most affectionate, indulgent father When you are talking about the youngest or the oldest, that should be only one of that kind.

His sister is his youngest sibling, but his younger sister
Since she is the lone female child, there is no need for the superlative form
Suppose, however, that there are more siblings, and their birth order goes like this Boy, girl, boy, boy, girl. A friend of mine has a big family She is a chinese girl, and has five sisters, who are all younger than she
She wants to know how to introduce her five sisters To make it easy to understand, i. 1 i find the phrase one of and the word youngest clumsy in this context, and would instead say (for example) he was among the younger siblings or he was a young sibling or he was little brother to most of his siblings. Thank you for the response
However, how would i refer to the number of siblings and still use the word siblings within the sentence
Or perhaps what would be a better way to word it? Today is the oldest you've ever been and the youngest you'll ever be again Is a literary quote by anonymous that has been around for a long time, and i think that that is proof that the again is necessary. My youngest brother works in the back while my elder, younger brother takes orders at the counter. the older of my brothers. comes across as a grammatically awkward statement
It doesn't sound right when i attempt to annunciate it I could be wrong, since i don't have a phd and am just an esl teacher, but it doesn't sound smooth. If there are three children in the family A boy, youngest is it correct for their father to refer to a as 'my eldest son' and to b as 'my younger daughter'
If you only have one sister and she is younger than you, she is your younger/little/baby sister
If you have several sisters, it gets more complicated The sisters closest to you in age, but younger, are your younger/little sisters The youngest sister is then your baby sister
