yes, exactly, Casper. Which is also why a step sister or brother is not someone who has been adopted.

And Lilian, I was only trying to be funny (Danish humour) ;-)

mmmmmmm...I'm still with the adoption.
Otherwise, it would be "half siblings".

half sibling = if you are related to the person through either your father or your mother (but not both of them). If your father or mother marries someone else and then has a child with that person, then you´re related to that child through blood.

Step sister/brother = the child of the person your father or mother has married after divorcing your mother/father. You are not related to that person through blood.

I believe the only way to say "step brother/sister" in Portuguese would be: filho /filha da minha madrasta (or: do meu padrasto). In Danish, Norwegian, Swedish and English, however, we have a precise term for it.

Half sibling = meio irmão / irmã

Do you see the difference now?

I'm sorry, I'm having a hard time to follow your discussion above.

But Lilian has a good point there. "Adoptivo" or "adoptado" in Spanish applies only for someone received into a family with no blood links with any of the parents. It is only used for orphan children. No half related with any of the parents, etc. We have specific terms for that too.

My point is, what does "stesøsken" mean?

Guilon:

stesøsken = stepsisters and/or stepbrothers

A Stepsister or stepbrother = A sister or brother who has only one parent in common with you.

That´s why "adoptivo" or "adoptado" do not apply to this context. That´s what I have been trying to explain the whole time......

Guys:

Let's put things in brief.

step-siblings = hermanastros

half-siblings = medio-hermanos

adopted siblings = hermanos adoptivos

That's clear enough for me! (and for all the others involved in this controverted discussion, I guess)

The translation to Spanish is not the problem here, since we have three different words with clear translations.

The issue here is... what exactly the word used in the original text in Norwegian means !!!

When you decide about that, the argument will be over.

I couldn´t agree more :-)

And I don´t have any doubt whatsoever as to what it means since "stedsøskende" in Danish has exactly the same meaning as "stesøsken" in Norwegian. Ans "stepsiblings" in English.

However, if Casper continues to disagree, I´ll rest my case because I don´t think it will make any difference now to search for more arguments and proofs to convince him ;-)

Lilian and Guilon, have a look at the English translation of this very same text. For some reason, Casper agrees there that it´s "stepsiblings" (or stepsisters and stepbrothers) in English.... so I really don´t understand why he does not agree now when it´s to be translated to Spanish.....?

Creo que en general la traducción está bien hecha, la única excepción es la palabra ''stepsiblings'' que la tradujo como:''hermanos adoptivos'' en lugar de ''hermanastros''...

What's the difference between hermanastros and medio-hermanos ?I thought it was the same

Mideia:

medio-hermanos = you are related to the person through either your father or your mother (but not both of them, that´s why it´s only "medio" ). This happens when your father or mother marries someone else and then has a child with that person, then you´re related to that child through blood.

hermanastros = the child of the person your father or mother has married after divorcing your mother/father. You are not related to that person through blood.
