What's the difference between a brother-in-law and a bridge?

"Brother-in-law" and "Lianqiao" refer to the mutual names or general names between sister husbands. Among them, "brother-in-law" is an elegant or written language, which has existed since ancient times; "Lianqiao" is a dialect saying, which is common in Sichuan and Hebei.

The word "brother-in-law" is recorded in many ancient documents, such as "Jia Lian and Wang Xifeng are brother-in-law" in A Dream of Red Mansions. This word is still widely used in modern Chinese, especially in northern China. "Lianqiao" is a dialect saying, which is mainly popular in Sichuan and Hebei. The meaning of this word is the same as that of "brother-in-law", but the expression is different. In Sichuan dialect, Lianqiao is pronounced as "lián qiáo" and in Hebei dialect, Lianqiao is pronounced as "lián qiáo".
