[English] Grandmothers

I'm always getting confused with "gran" and "nan". Are the two synonymous or is one the mother's and the other the father's mother?

As far as I know they are the same thing, although there are class and regional differences in their use.

Thanks.
In almost related news, my letter selection in our current game has been really bad, now I don't have any vowels left. Gaaah!

Don't worry, I have had the Q in four of five games.

That's because I've had them all! No consonants at all, for ages!
