gehöre dem XX- und XY-Klan an Explanation: "born to" eigentlich "hineingeboren", ist aber wohl zu lang :-(. Oder einfach nur: Ich gehöre dem XX- und XY-Klan an. Anschließend kommt ja noch der "Oppa" ins Spiel, dann ist ja ersichtlich, dass die ersten beiden Mama und Papa sind, oder? Somit müssen die langen Begriffe "mütterlicherseits"/"väterlicherseits" nicht mehr erwähnt werden. |
