| Aug 21, 2011 at 13:01 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | What a bizarre example pair of sentences OP's first two are! Obviously "he" must be "her" brother, so that would normally be how one would define the relationship. The only context where either of these statements would be made is if they're half-siblings, and someone asked which parent they have in common. But it's still a weird way of putting it. | |
