DEAR MAKAS:
IS THERE A SYSTEM OTHER THEN USING THE "GREAT" WORD TO NUMBER
SITUATION IN THE LINE? WOULD IT BE CORRECT, INSTEAD, TO NUMBER AS
FALLOWS: SON, FATHER-MOTHER, GRANDPARENTS, GREAT-GRANDPARENTS, AND
THEN MENTION THEM AS THIRD-GRANDPARENTS, FOURTH-GRANDPARENTS AND
SO FORTH? I THINK THAT WAY IT'S EASIER TO VIEW THEIR PLACES IN THE
GENS LINE.
