Thousands of flights canceled as major winter storm bears down
> More than 8,000 flights across the U.S. set to take off over the weekend have been canceled as a major storm expected to wreak havoc across much of the country bears down, threatening to knock out power for days and snarl major roadways.
> Roughly 140 million people were under a winter storm warning from New Mexico to New England. The National Weather Service forecast warns of widespread heavy #snow and a band of catastrophic ice stretching from east Texas to North Carolina.
> Forecasters say damage, especially in areas pounded by ice, could rival that of a hurricane.
> By Friday night, the edge of the storm was sending freezing rain and sleet into parts of Texas while snow and sleet were falling in Oklahoma. After sweeping through the South, the storm was expected to move into the Northeast, dumping about a foot (30 centimeters) of snow from Washington through New York and Boston, the weather service predicted.

Question for Chinese speakers.
What do you call
1) your husband's mom
2) your husband's dad
3) wife's mom
4) wife's dad
5) grandma and grandpa (moms parents)
6) grandma and grandpa (dads parents)Bonus points for aunts and uncles too on both sides.
I'm getting blown away by the differences and I'm not sure if some people are mistaken because they're born afar like I am or if there really are that many differences.
Let me know your region and dialect too.

@fabio Do you use "immigrant" here in Canada? I've never heard a Brazilian here call themselves an expatriate. I've also never seen anyone use anything but "immigrant" in French to describe themselves.
Do you use "imigrante" to describe yourself in Brazil?

@evan
Even with the updated question it's complicated.I hold dual citizenship and live in a third country.
One country requires that I set foot there at least once every three years, which matches the election cycle, the other that I maintain registration.
Generally I'm in favour of as much engagement as possible for all people connected to a nation. If some are to be excluded from voting, it seems reasonable to base that on engagement if they are otherwise no longer present.
