Examples from texts

But Fenoglio suspected it was more likely that the Adderhead had chosen his puny brother-in-law because he could be sure the Milksop would never rise against him.
Fenoglio vermutete allerdings eher, dass der Natternkopf seinen schwächlichen Schwager gewählt hatte, weil er sicher war, dass der sich niemals gegen ihn erheben würde.

I used to do the trapeze, the rings and the high wire. I did an air act together with my brother-in-law and, once in Sweden, I did a handstand at the very tip of the circus tent.
Ich war früher am Trapez, an den Ringen oder auf dem Hochseil, mit meinem Schwager zusammen hatte ich eine Luftnummer und in Schweden habe ich mal einen Handstand auf der Spitze des Zirkuszelts gemacht.
