How do you say cousin in Flemish?

There isn't one single word for "cousin" in Flemish. Instead, you need to be more specific about the relationship:

* For a male cousin: neef

* For a female cousin: nicht

It's similar to how English uses "nephew" and "niece."

You can also say:

* Zuskind: meaning "sibling's child," which works for both male and female cousins.

* Kind van mijn oom/tante: This means "child of my uncle/aunt" and is more specific about the relation.

Hope this helps!
