For memory reasons, let us point out abbreviations that go together :

|
|
brother-in-law
|
|
sister
|
|
sister-in-law
|
|
daughter
|
|
daughter-in-law
|
|
son
|
|
son in law
|
|
father
|
|
father-in-law
|
|
mother
|
|
mother-in-law
|
|

|
|
|
|
children
|
|
|
|
grandfather
|
|
|

|
grandson
|
|
|
|
grandaughter

Sometimes I have to inverse the letters of the word, to make an abbreviation :
