How do you say grandfather in Dene?

There is no single, universally recognized word for "grandfather" in Dene. This is because "Dene" is a broad term that encompasses many distinct Indigenous languages spoken across Canada and Alaska.

To know how to say "grandfather" in a specific Dene language, you need to specify which language you're interested in.

For example:

* Chipewyan: "naga" (for paternal grandfather), "niza" (for maternal grandfather)

* Slavey: "naga" (for paternal grandfather), "niza" (for maternal grandfather)

* Dogrib: "naga" (for paternal grandfather), "niza" (for maternal grandfather)

* Tlicho: "naga" (for paternal grandfather), "niza" (for maternal grandfather)

* South Slavey: "naga" (for paternal grandfather), "niza" (for maternal grandfather)
