How to say Tom's family


Shelley

Recommended Posts

As the title says how do you somebody's family.

 

I want to send a Christmas/new year card to my neighbour who is chinese, I only know his given name, not his wife's or child. So if we say his name is Tom is there any way to say Tom's family or Tom and family or something along these lines.

 

I want to get it right, he has been helping me a little with chinese.

 

I know 家室 , can I say 家室的 Tom.

 

Thanks for any help.

Wonder why the down vote? sometimes it is a bit confusing when you get a down vote and no reason, have I made a horrendous mistake and offended someone, if so I will only be able not do it again if someone tells me.

 

Or is it a terrible faux pas of etiquette to address someone's family like this.

 

Who ever down voted please let me know.
