Hi Princess! This is a question that only a real native French speaker or a wonderful "How to Learn to Speak French Online" Software can answer because the most this fake answers are taking from Translation Sites who don`t have the capacity to think to far so he would probably translate it as:
Great grand parents = grands grands parents
(I suppose you did the same mistake before coming here lol)
And as you notice it doesn`t really sounds right! This is why only a real native French speaker or a wonderful "How to Learn to Speak French Online" Software can answer to such a question.
The true translation is:
Great grand parents : Arrière grand-parents.
Great great grand parents : Arrière Arrière grand-parents.
I hope this will be able to provide you a lot of help!
