Grandson in Apache

Q: Hello, my family is Apache from Arizona. Could you please tell me how to say son and grandson in Apache.

A: "My son" is "shiye" in Western Apache. "My grandson" is "shinalé" if it's your son's child, or "shiwóyé" if it's your daughter's child.

Hope that helps, have a good day!
