How do you say grandma-grandmother in the Choctaw Indian language?

I've heard it two ways. My family and I have said it "pokni" since i was a child, while I've read it as "sapokni" in other places. I am a MS Choctaw Indian and "pokni" DOES mean grandmother, on the other hand "sapokni" quite literally means "old"! Well, I am a Louisiana Choctaw Indian, and we say grandmother as "pokni" also. As far as "sa pokni," 'sa' in itself means "my" in English, so maybe where you heard it the people were trying to say "my grandmother." Hope that helps!Wing ping us what I call her
