By the way, do you have siblings?. I have 2 sisters and I don't have brother^^. FYI in Japanese you would use different words, wether you are talking about your own family or someone else's family. For example:
父も母もアメリカ人です
chichi mo haha mo Indonesiajin desu
(my) father and mother are American
お父さんは何処ですか
otou-san wa doko desu ka?
where are (your) father?
The sentences above can be understood even there is not the pronouns like anata no otou-san or watashi no chichi or whatever. And this is the vocabulary list that we are learning today^^ happy learning:
