FAMILY RELATIONSHIP

I HAVE A DOUBT... WE USE THE WORDS GRANDPARENTS TO REFER TO THE GRANDFATHER AND GRANDMOTHER, THE WORD PARENTS TO FATHER AND MOTHER, GODPARENTS TO GODMOTHER AND GODFATHER. CAN I USE THE WORD UNCLES TO REFER TO UNCLE AND AUNT AS WELL, OR IS THERE ANY OTHER VOCABULARY THAT REFERS TO THEM... THANKS!

No. You say my "uncle and aunt".

Hello, I have never seen a word which can be used to refer to "aunt and uncle"... also, I know for people who are not your siblings and parents, we can use the phrase �extended family �... but no special word for uncle or aunt.
