Best Answer

Your sister-in-law is either the sister of your spouse or the wife of your brother.

If your sister-in-law is the wife of your brother, then her husband is your brother, not your brother-in-law.

If your sister-in-law is the sister of your spouse, then her husband is not related to you.

In either case her husband is your children's uncle.

One answer:No.

William and Alice are married. William and Carol are siblings. Alice and Frank are siblings.

Carol is Alice's sister in law. Frank is William's brother in law. Carol and Frank are not related to one another.

Another answer:Yes. The term "in-law" comes from canon law (as opposed to common law). Canon law is law that governs the conduct of a faith's membership. In this case, the term refers to a relationship that is "not natural," that is, not by blood. So, your in-laws are granted a relationship that is between having no relationship and having blood relationship to you. Anyone of a blood relationship on the "in-law" side of the relationship are also considered your in-laws (father-in-law, son-in-law, brother-in-law, etc.).

There are two ways you can have a brother-in-law. The brother of your spouse is your brother-in-law and the husband of your sister is your brother-in-law.

If the husband of your sister has a brother, that brother is not related to you, although he is your sister's brother-in-law.

If the brother of your spouse has a brother (who is not married to you) that brother is also your brother-in-law. But the relationship is because both are brothers of your spouse.

Is your sister's husband considered your husband's brother-in-law?

No. Your husband's brother-in-law would be your brother or the husband of your husband's sister. Your sister is your husband's sister-in-law. Your sister's husband is your brother-in-law but the English language has no term to describe a relationship between your husband and your sister's husband. In everyday English usage, however, your sister's husband is referred to as your husband's brother-in-law, yes. But it isn't exactly correct.


Is allow your husband and me proper English?

The form 'allow your husband and me' is correct. The pronoun 'me' is part of the compound object of the verb 'allow'. Example: If you allow your husband and me a little more time we can finish. Other correct examples are using 'your husband and me' as the object of a preposition: ... for your husband and me ... ... from your husband and me ... ... by your husband and me ... ... near your husband and me ... ... to your husband and me ... An easy way to figure out whether I or ME is correct is to remove "your husband" from the sentence. Try it with just I or ME. You should be able to figure out which one is right. Then, add "your husband" back in. Adding "your husband" does not change whether I or ME is correct. Be aware, that the custom is to list yourself last. You should say: Your husband and I, Your husband and me. You should not say: I and your husband. Me and your husband.
