Q1.
If the only brother of your father's sister had a child, what would be the child's relationship with you?
Answer
The child is you yourself — or your own brother or sister.
Untangle the puzzle one link at a time.
Your father's sister is your aunt — your bua.
Bua's only brother — bua has just one brother, and your father is her brother. So this person is your own father.
Your father's child is you, or one of your brothers and sisters.
So the child in the puzzle is you (or your sibling).
Reading a relationship puzzle is like reading a fraction: take it one step at a time.
Try this: Make your own puzzle for a friend. For example — who is the son of my mother's only sister's husband? (Answer: your cousin, your mausi's son.)
