Usage notes
Sogro has two plural forms, both spelled sogros, but pronounced as sôgros and sógros. The former (os sôgros) means exclusively a group of two or more men (cf. English fathers-in-law), the latter (os sógros) is used for a group of both men and women (cf. English parents-in-law). Both are masculine nouns. The plural of sogra (mother-in-law) is a regular feminine noun (as sogras) and means mothers-in-law. This is one of the few Portuguese nouns that have a tripartite plural inflection, the others being, , , and other derived terms.
