Can a grandson also be called a nephew?

Grandchildren can't be called nephews. Grandson, originally refers to the daughter's children, now refers to the daughter's son, also known as grandson. Nephew refers to my sister and her sister's son. If it is a daughter, it is called a niece, so a grandson cannot be called a nephew.

In the tradition of northern rural areas, even grandparents will not call their daughters' grandchildren, but nephews. In the past, there was a rumor in the countryside that the married girl, the spilled water, discriminated against the girl after marriage is not her family.

Especially in ancient times, married women often took their husbands' surnames, and grandchildren had to live by themselves. The so-called nephew also refers to children born with a foreign surname, and even has a considerable gap with their grandchildren in terms of treatment.

Kinship.

Kinship is a social relationship based on marriage, consanguinity and legal fiction. The legal kinship in our country includes husband and wife, parents, children, brothers and sisters, grandparents and grandparents, grandchildren and grandchildren, daughter-in-law and in-laws, son-in-law and in-laws and other collateral blood relatives within three generations, such as uncles, uncles, aunts, nephews, cousins and so on. Relatives are not equal to family. People who are related by blood may belong to different families, and family members are not absolutely related by blood.
