(Alabama, USA)

My mom wants to be called grandmother in the Maasai language.

But we cannot remember what it is...

Does anybody know?

Type in your search box Google Books The Masai - Their Language and Folklore. This will give you everything you need to know.

PS - I think the word you need is Ogho but I am not sure how that sounds.
