The word Niblings as a plural for a niece and newphew
The word Niblings as a plural for a niece and newphew
The Issue
Problem
There’s no problem really and a very straight forward solution. It’s just that nieces and nephews deserve a collective name as brothers and sisters have siblings, mum and dad have parents. So it’s only just that there is a word to call nieces and nephews.
Solution
Adding the word niblings to the Oxford English Dictionary
Personal story
I have a niece and a nephew and when I take them out I never know what to call them, and it seems strange we have a term for all others relationships but not for nieces and nephews
