The word "aunt" has different meanings in different regions and cultural backgrounds. In China, it usually refers to the father's sister or the mother's sister, and it can also refer to the husband's mother. In Western countries, it usually refers to the father's sister or the mother's sister, and can also refer to the aunt or husband's sister. No matter where you are, "aunt" is a symbol of family affection, representing the mutual support and care between family members.

In some areas, people have a unique way of addressing their elders or juniors. For example, in Hunan, Guangxi and other places, young women are often called "aunt", even if she is not their aunt or uncle. This is because in the dialects of these areas, the word "aunt" is more commonly used to address women, and it is an affectionate way of addressing women. In the Northeast and parts of North China, people are accustomed to using titles such as "eldest aunt", "second aunt" and "third aunt" to express their relatives.

In addition to being a title for relatives, "aunt" is also used in some areas to express respect or gratitude. For example, in some areas in the South, when receiving care or help from their elders, the younger generation will call them "aunt" to express their gratitude and respect. In Chinese culture, the Confucian idea of ??"the thread in the hands of a loving mother and the clothes on the body of a wanderer" also pursues this kind of family ethics and family affection. Therefore, the term "aunt" also reflects the emphasis on family and affection in traditional Chinese culture to a certain extent.
