[someone]'s grandmother
عام غلطی:
Learners sometimes use only the informal word "grandma" in all situations, including writing and formal speech. Use "grandmother" in formal or polite contexts, and remember that it is usually used with a possessive word such as "my", "her", or "their" (for example, "my grandmother", not just "grandmother" unless you mean grandmothers in general).
