GREAT AUNT

Traducere în limba română

great aunt substantiv (amer.) v. grand aunt.

 Exemple de propoziții și/sau fraze: 

This would have been an error in judgment, great though not uncommon, from which one of the other sex rather than her own, a brother rather than a great aunt, might have warned her, for man only can be aware of the insensibility of man towards a new gown.

(Northanger Abbey, de Jane Austen)

Catherine knew all this very well; her great aunt had read her a lecture on the subject only the Christmas before; and yet she lay awake ten minutes on Wednesday night debating between her spotted and her tamboured muslin, and nothing but the shortness of the time prevented her buying a new one for the evening.

(Northanger Abbey, de Jane Austen)
