[English] Grandmothers

[karohemd]

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?

those are both very british too - americans usually (at least in my region of the country) use grandma.

Yes, I should have specified that. I don't think I've heard American use either.
