Sister-in law - a finding

There has always been a complain among women about their sisters-in-law. Apparently, this seems to stem from the word to denote the relation. "Nanand" in hindi denotes one's husband's sister. This word is derived from the sanskrit word "na-ananda" meaning one who can never be made happy or satisfied.

Possibly, a change in the terminology would improve the relations.
