How do you say little sister in Filipino?

There are two common ways to say "little sister" in Filipino:

* "Nakababatang kapatid na babae" (pronounced nah-kah-bah-bah-tang kah-pah-teed nah bah-bah-ay) - This is the literal translation and is more formal.

* "Bunso" (pronounced boon-so) - This is a more casual term for the youngest sibling, regardless of gender. You can use this if you are referring to your youngest sister.

You can also use the more informal term "Ate" (pronounced ah-tay) if you're referring to your older sister. It's like saying "sis" in English.

So, depending on the context and your relationship with your sister, you can choose the appropriate term.
