Meaning:
younger brother’s son; grandson
Lexicographical glosses vary: alongside a younger brother’s son and a son’s son, broader descriptions give a male relative or a sister’s son. In the more specific kinship distinction, yegän denotes a sister’s son. The exact relationship must therefore be established from context.
