In the Tagalog (Filipino) language, we have the following words which are of Hokkien import:
* parent-in-law - biyenan
* son- or daughter-in-law - manugang
* brother-in-law - bayaw
* sister-in-law - hipag
* the spouse of your brother- or sister-in-law - bilas
We also have the following words for siblings which are influenced by Hokkien:
(male first, then female)
* elder sibling - kuya / ate (or aya / achi)
* second eldest - diko / ditse
* third eldest - sanso or sangko / sanse
* youngest sibling (male or female) - bunso (or siobe)
I've also heard my grandaunts call my grandfather "siaho" (the eldest sister's husband) but I don't know what's the equivalent word for the eldest brother's wife.
