Cherokee (Tsalagi):Without the proper font I can only re-produce the English version here.

Grandmother is "U li si" pronounced "eww-lee-see"

The Chickahominy people once spoke an Algonquian language(of which there are dozens), but the details of their language are lost. It was likely similar to Northern Algonquin, which is:

my grandmother = nanoham (pronounced nuh-NOH-hum)
