Your grandparents’ grandchildren are your first cousins, meaning you share the same grandparent.

2nd cousins share a great grandparent.

3rd cousins share a great great grandparent.

And for the removed part…

Your nephew/niece had a kid… Your kid and your niece are first cousins, but that kid is your kids’1st cousin once removed.
