Japan

Artist: Siori

Hi! my name is Siori. I am a girl and 7 years old. I like to play dodge ball games, ride a wheel bicycle and drawing pictures. I call my grandmother "Ba-ba". I take a long walk with my Ba-ba. I am very slow but she finishes her works very quickly. Now I am learning beans bag game from her. I am going to make a hand make fancy box for my Ba-ba.

grandmother in Japanese:

obaachan, obasan, obaba,

obaachan is usually we use for grandmother. obaasan is a little bit polite way to say.

If you talk about your own grandmother, you may say obaacha for friendly. And if you want to say another person's grandmother, you'll say it for obaasan for polite.

Obaba maybe uses in local places not in the city.

Those are the Japanese words for grandmother.

Thanks,
Isamu
