Boy English is pretty tame. My native language has gendered pronouns for what feels like every type of relative you can have. I don't see my extended family very often so truthfully I don't even know half of those pronouns. Sometimes a relative pops up out of nowhere and I get all confused about pronouns again. Seriously, like last year at a family gathering my aunt (maybe? idk, she's my grandmother's niece) brought someone and was like "heyyyy yall are related come say hiii" and she was like brand new information to everyone there lol.
