| Feb 23, 2014 at 2:55 | comment | added | Umeco | Thank you for the comments. Sorry, I know I was not clear enough. I didn't know how to write it. I was told that it's strange to say "He's 16 and she's 14" in parallel. He said I should say "I have a brother and a sister. The brother is 16 and the sister is 14." But it didn't sound right to me, but I couldn't explain it clearly. | |

| Feb 23, 2014 at 1:16 | comment | added | FumbleFingers | As things stand, it's "unclear what you're asking". Can you explain why you think the first version might not be "natural"? For example, are you bothered that the (semantic) links between he/she and brother/sister might not be strong enough to justify the "backward reference"? | |
