Hi ! Thanks for your commentary. Can ask to you a precision for the word «siblings» ? My English language is not so good and I verified in dictionary. My search don't give a positive result. Can you tell me a synonymous for «siblings» or «family». I'll be very grateful to have this precision. Have a good day !

Hi! I'll answer your question.

"sibling" can represent "brothers and sisters" by one word. You have five brothers and four sisters, it means that you have nine siblings.  So I interpreted it as "You are the seventh of your siblings (ten persons including you )"
