If an uncle or aunt is a generation above usual (a "great uncle" or "great aunt"), a
"mota" (big) is usually added to the title, and the name is dropped. So Maternal
Grandmother's Brother is "Mota Mama" (Big Uncle).
Names are usually followed by titles, as they have listed above. This is different
from the English, where we would say "Uncle John".
It is not unusual for this to vary from family to family, but these are the generally
accepted titles.

If this feature isn’t working properly on your Xiaomi phone, the check whether anything is blocking area next to earphone where proximity sensor is placed. Mostly it caused by screen guard. You should remove it. If you still facing problem then here’s how to turn it off: 1. From your device’s Settings, tap Lock screen & password. 2. Slide the Prevent pocket dials switch to the off position. (Slider will be greye
