I remember people saying vavo (vavoo) for grandfather;
and vava (vavaw) for grandmother.

Subject: [AZORES-Genealogy] Teaching Myself a Little Portuguese....regarding the FURTADO Family.


The book, "Portuguese Spinner", just arrived today and I got a better
look at the photo of the FURTADO Family.

According to Babelfish, the Portuguese word for grandmother is:  Avo'.
The caption of the photo on page 110 says:  Vovo'.  Babelfish could
not help me translate Vovo'.

Can someone clarify this for me?

Thanks!
