| 用法说明 | Use 'relation' when talking about family connections or associations. It's generally appropriate in both spoken and written contexts. Avoid using it in very casual conversations where simpler terms like 'connection' might feel more natural. | Use 'relative' to refer to family members in a general sense. In formal contexts, it's suitable to discuss familial connections; in informal settings, it's often used casually. Avoid using it for non-familial connections. |
