Question:You might have to draw it on a piece of paper. Would I call her a cousin? Is there some other special title for this relationship?

As soon as the term "wife" or "husband" appears, then there is no genealogical (blood) relationship. So you aren't related to her at all.

If the person in question is the spouse of a blood relative, adding "in-law" to the relationship you have with the blood relative is sometimes used (of course switching gender names such as wife of son is not son-in-law but daughter-in-law). But that indicates marital status and thus if there is a divorce (or even death) the "in-law" goes away.

But once you get to the family of an "in-law", there really is no way to describe the relationship in traditional relationship forms because they are in no way actually related to you (at least through the lines you know).

yes she is ur cousin sister.

She's your aunt-in-laws sister's daughter. I would call that a cousin.

You can stop at your uncles wife's sister, no relation except family relations. Or your second cousin if you wanna think its possible blood later.

Yes, cousin sister would be the most suitable title to address her.

she is no relation to you, except in your extended family.

lets is your mom your uncle which is a blood uncle he's wife only related to you by marrigeby her sister that had no connection to you and her daughter that reallly really really has no connection to you so i say she is abousoly nothing related to you but if your familys close i guess to be nice you can call her your cosin but if you want to date her you can also do that and there no problom lol

You're not related.
She's your Aunt's neice.
I sometimes call my aunt's nephew "CUZ" but we aren't really cousins.

this might help, I don't know if it includes what you're lookign for though

your mothers brothers sister is your aunt so she would be your first cousin,if you mean your mothers brothers sister in laws daughter then there is no relationship.

She would be your Aunt's sister's niece...no relation to you.

(You, Your Mother, Your Uncle, Your Aunt, Your Aunt's sister, Your Aunt's niece)

you can call her cousin if you want to, and, if you like her, that's OK, too, no blood or DNA shared whatsoever!

No there's no name for it. It's okay if you want to get married.

She is absolutely no relation to you whatsoever.

2nd cousin?

She is no relation at all, no blood link but that does not mean they are part of your greater emotional family.
