Dear Yoko
Let me tell you about my family. I live with my mum, my dad and my big sister. We live in California. My mum’s name is Carmen. She’s Mexican and she speaks English and Spanish. She’s a Spanish teacher. She’s short and slim, she’s got long, brown hair and brown eyes. My dad’s name is David. He’s American. He’s tall and a little fat! He’s got short brown hair and blue eyes. He works in a bank. My sister Shania is 14 and she loves listening to music. She listens to music all the time! She’s got long brown hair and green eyes, like me. I’ve got long hair too. We’ve got a pet dog, Brandy. He’s black and white and very friendly.
Write soon and tell me about your family.

My family has 5 people: dad, mum, 2 younger sisters and me.
My dad was born in 1965, he's 52. He's an built-worker. He's a very kind, warm father. He has black skin because he works very hard every day from morning to evening outside and under the sun to earn money for living. That's why I love dad so much.
I also love my mother ♥ She's a beautiful, generous, talented woman. She has big black eyes, long curly hair and tanned skin. She's as tall as me. She's a worker and she works hard everyday to earn money.She usually scolds me and sisters but I can understand the reason is she just want her children to be mature.
I love all members of my family ♥

hi enny nice to meet u ^^,
Hello admins, will you help me?
Is it okay to say,
My faimily is a father, mother and I. ?
Or
My family members are...
(ಠ_ʖಠ)
Hi Ken!!
Let me see if I can help you too.
The members of my family are my father, my mother and I.
Family member(s) is a common error. It's not right to use. Instead we should say members of family. OK.
Also, we can say, My family consists of...... etc.
I hope it helped you. ;)
;)
Hadia, I have a question. In one book, I don't know which, it was mentioned like "Lily was telling me about her family members" or something. Is it wrong?
Hi Ken, hadia and catastrophe!
It's so nice to see you chatting and helping each other with English as well. :) Depending on the context, it's correct to say 'family members', 'members of the family', or 'members of my family'. We don't say 'My family is a mother...' but it is common to say 'There are four people in my family' or 'There are four of us in my family'. Best wishes, Joanna (LearnEnglish Teens team)
Hi clever hadia!
Thanks for your comment, you've been most helpful!
₍₍ ( ๑॔˃̶◡ ˂̶๑॓)◞♡
You're always welcome Ken!
Hi Ken. I'd say any of these options are commonly used.
Your sentences are very close to the third one. Hope that helps :)
