    Are people with the same surname related to each other?

      yup. My elder sis πŸ™‚

      xD is a emoticon. πŸ™‚ Somewhat like a smiley.

      Btw I think my surname is quite common. It's 吴.

      Both my sister and her boyfriend has the same surname so I'm just checking.

      Of course my surname isn't THAT common like Wang, Tan or Lim.

      But it's the 10th most common surname in Mainland China.

        I heard Li Bai's hometown was in modern-day Kazakhstan. Kazakhstan used to belong to China Tang I think.
        Hmm, I don't think Kazakhstan is belongs to China during the Tang Dynasty. Most probably is just a kingdom that pay tribute to the mighty Tang then.

          Same dialect group? If not should be ok. Even if same dialect group, I personally do not think it is a big issue too. Most importantly is they love each other. Like someone have mentioned, if cousins (葨兄妹)can get married, why bother about your ancestors 500 years ago could be relatives?

            But would you all want to take the chance. δΈζ€•δΈ€δΈ‡οΌŒεͺ怕万一 .


            In that case, all cannot marry cos we are all related. Cos we either descended from Adam and Eve or from a single cell organism.

            :scratchhead: but surely they have different surnames? πŸ˜† Jus kiddin'

                r u related to Woffles? πŸ˜‰
                d various English translations of 吴 : Wu, Woo, Ng, Goh, etc.
                u anyhow throw one stone into a crowd can hit one, si bo?
                I knew a guy with d surname Oh
                didn't know at dat time its d Korean equivalent for 吴.
                Also nvr asked if he has Korean roots, but he was born n raised in SG.

                So there u go, u may hv Korean relations.
