chozno and bisnieto

Question

Do the words "chozno" and "bisnieto" mean the same thing'

Answer 1

HI mary, I actually did not even know the word chozno, I was surprised to find it in the dictionary. so the use must be Mexican. And they probably use it as bisnieto, even though the definition says otherwise

Answer 2

Thank you, Heidita.

I was discussing our family genealogy with a person from Mexico and he used the word "chozno". I did find it in the dictionary and it meant "bisnieto". Then i used it when discussing family while in Mexico and realized that others were not sure what I meant. My conclusion is that in Mexico and here we use "bisnieto" while perhaps in Spain and elsewhere "chozno" is more common. Do you think this may be correct'Again, thanks. Mary
