Japan

Artist: Yuuto

My name is Yuuto. I am a boy and 9 years old. I like to play soccer. I like cooking very much. I sometimes cook for my grandmother "Oba-chan". I am good at eggs cooking. She take me to shopping sometimes. I get my allowance from her sometimes. I keep it in my kitty and I buy big ones.

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
