noun

noun
one's daughter-in-law
Used to refer to one's own son's wife. Often carries a traditional or slightly old-fashioned feel; 嫁 (よめ) is more common in modern speech.
嫁御が毎日、家事を手伝ってくれる。
My daughter-in-law helps with the housework every day.
More common and neutral term for both 'bride' and 'daughter-in-law'. 嫁御 is more formal or traditional.
Specifically means 'bride' in a wedding context, often with a more celebratory nuance.
Compound of 嫁 (よめ, 'bride, daughter-in-law') and honorific suffix 御 (ご). The exact historical derivation is uncertain, but the suffix adds a respectful or formal tone.
