Siblings

It is also important in Japanese to distinguish between younger and older siblings. Even for twins, it is important to identify who is the oldest and youngest based on who was born first. This is another way that Japanese people show RESPECT through their language use. They have different words for "older brother, "younger brother", "older sister" and "younger sister".
There is no word that just means "sister" or just means "brother" in Japanese.
