onee-chane and onii-chan

onee-chan literally means "Big sister" and can be used when talking to older girls or about older girls when you don't know their name.

onii-chan literally means "Big brother" and can be used when talking to older boys or about older boys when you don't know their name.

"Ano onii-chan, se ga takai ne!" = That guy is really tall, huh?
