ArchivesA list
in reply to a message by E.
There's:
oma (German)
bubbe (Yiddish)
babushka (Russian)
abuelita (Spanish)
obaasan (Japanese) [pronounced with a quick long o-bahah
{silent h}-sahn]
sobo (Japanese) [pronounced so-bo {quick long o on both syllables}]
I can find out more if you'd like (the Japanese pronunciations are kinda difficult to transcribe into romanji since inflection also plays a role in what the word means.)
Phyllis (aka Sidhe Uaine or Gaia Euphoria)
