An older/younger sibling is older/younger relative to the person whose
sibling they are. E.g., My younger brother is younger than *I* am.
I've had a problem all my life with describing my brother who is a year
younger than I am. I've called him my older brother, because he's the older
of my two brothers, but he's still younger than I am. OTOH, calling him my
older brother implies that he is older than I am. (Now I just don't talk
about him.)
So the seltau {citmau} may not be the best word to use for the meaning you
want.
