What do you mean by this?

_Fegl_ would be 'child' as the opposite of 'parent'
while 'child' as opposite of 'adult' would be _pe�_.

_Jo hua cinc figl; tray fegl�o e deu figl�._[^1]

"I have five children; three sons and two daughters"
(some or all of which may be adults and so not
_pi�_ anymore).

'First generation descendant' would define it
pretty well, but wordy and technical, which
_fegl_ would not be.

[^1]: I'm just now deliberating whether
-ALES and -OLES become _-�o_ or _-i�o_.
More on this ASAP!
