Family
Today I want to talk about family. I want to say in advance that the purpose of my todays writing is to use the following words: ancestral, cohesion, descendant, kin, legitimate, paternal, proximity, sentiment, and sibling.
For me it’s essential to keep cohesion in the family, and most probably I’m not unique in that sense. I used to hear some good advice from my grandmother about the role and importance of family; therefore I am sure that my ancestral ancestors put a large amount of effort into creating a strong family. However, I should mention one exception. My maternal great grandfather had 6 illegitimate children and only 3 legitimate, but despite that my grandmother loves her siblings. She was a wise woman and kindness mother; moreover she was always in the touch with her kin, never was tired to repeat that “I can take cold tea, but cold heart more is than I can care”. She hoped that her descendants will share her feelings. I do, at least.
Hello Taguhi
I think that you have used most of the words correctly. The only one that is wrong is 'ancestral', this is an adjective not a noun so we usually talk about 'the ancestral home' - the home that has been in the family for generations.
There is one English collocation/chunk worth pointing out - to put effort into + verb-ing
Well done.
