cellioIs there a word in English to designate the person who is my husband's brother-in-law? Saying that he is my brother-in-law implies, to me, that either he is my sister's husband or my husband's brother. The person I'm describing is my husband's sister's husband.
I don't need this word often, but the person in question comes up in conversation just often enough to cause me to trip over this too many times.
