Sorry, I forgot. Here is how we say “cousin”, quite complicated.

Female elder cousin = biǎo jiě 表姐

Female younger cousin = biǎo mèi 表妹

Male elder cousin = biǎo gē 表哥

Male younger cousin = biǎo dì 表弟

my bithday is on the 19th of december 1996 = wǒ de shēng rì shì 1996 nián 12 yuè 19 hào, 我的生日是1996年12月19号

That is = nà ge shì 那个是…..
