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!
