How to Say ‘Auntie Wang’ in Traditional Chinese
王阿姨
wáng ā yí
[wáng ah-ee]
💬 Usage Tip: The family name comes first, then the title: 王 + 阿姨. Swap in another name the same way, e.g. 陳阿姨 (Chén āyí) "Auntie Chen".
🇹🇼 In Taiwan: In Taiwan you call an older woman neighbor 阿姨 even though she isn't related to you. It's warm and respectful, and much more natural than 王太太 "Mrs. Wang".
