English term or phrase: husband of sister of husband
this question is for bengali people from Bangladesh. I need to know the word which means the husband of ননদ. For hindus it is thakurjhi - thakurjamai, but for muslims nonod - ? .
Please try to find the exact word. Answers "jamai", "bhai", "dada" etc. will not do.

ননদজামাই/ননদ-জামাই


Explanation:
আভিধানিকভাবে নন্দাই শব্দটি সঠিক হলেও আজকাল শহর-নগরে শব্দটি প্রচলিত নয়। কথোপথনে বা লেখার সময় আমরা ননদজামাই কথাটিই ব্যবহার করি এবং সম্বোধনের সময় ‘...(নাম) ভাই/ভাইয়া’ বলি।
