"Мій молодший брат - учень."

Translation: My younger brother is a student.

[maks.angel]

My younger brother is a pupil.
pupil - should be more precise

[Vinnfred]

Do people still say that?

[Vince674452]

Yes you are a pupil in a secondary school, but a student in Higher education

[Shady_arc]

Should be, but depends on the variation of English you speak. Do I understand it correctly that AmE prefers "students"?

Yes. Pupil is not an unfamiliar word, but I can't remember the last time I used it. And I'm a teacher.

[deactivated user]

I think so too!

[Basyabe]

I think "pupil" is better for here...

People often say "little brother" to mean "younger brother." It's not even necessarily a term of endearment, but is often just used matter-of-factly in lieu of "younger brother." Similarly, "big brother" is often used to mean "older brother."

Not sure if they're worth adding, but "little brother" comes to me more naturally than "younger brother."

[Carl_Ramrod]

Agreed. I've reported it.

[sagitta145]

Thanks, added it!

I specifically put "pupil" because I was marked wrong earlier when I translated "student" as "учень". I hate this.

Учень v. Студент, which is used when?

[BarryLord1]

This section of the course is perhaps the worst for the divergence between British and American English (and between normal people and academics who assume that everyone is familiar with their terminology).
