Jag har en ganska stor släkt: en morbror, två farbröder, och flera kusiner. En kusiner har två barn. Jag växte upp med min mamma, pappa, och syster. Det flesta i min släkt bor utanför min hemstad. Nu, bor jag långt ifrån dem, i en annan stat. Jag är sambo, jag bor med min pojkvän. Vi har inte husdjur, men vi har ett trägårdsland.

This is comically short because I am an absolute beginner in Swedish! I have a question- would the wife of my paternal uncle (farbror) be my farmor? I don't think so, but I don't know what to call aunts and uncles that are related by marriage, not genetics. Please let me know! And thank you for reading. :)
It doesnt matter if it´s a short text, writing in another language is a great way to practise! Your text was good, I had no problems understanding it :) Farmor means paternal grandmother (your father´s mother), so you wouldn´t call the wife of your paternal uncle that. I would probably just call her "min farbrors fru" (my paternal uncle´s wife).
Ohhhh okay. That's interesting to me as an English speaker, since in English they are all aunts and uncles (both genetic-related and marriage-related). Thanks for all of your help!
You´re welcome! I can understand the confusion. When I first started learning English I read some kind of text where a person´s aunt was married to a guy who they referred to as uncle (or "uncle name"). Younger me was so confused on why you would marry your sibling haha.
