Language

I saw this posted on the apc group and wanted to mark it on my blog. I want to learn some Chinese but I'm not betting on ever becoming fluent in the language.

In Chinese, the terms for grandfather/grandmother on father's side are
different from those on the mother's side. (This is also true for
uncles and aunts). Also, there are formal ways to say grandfather and
grandmother and informal ways.
On the father's side --
Grandfather: Zu Fu
Grandpa, Papa: Ye Ye (pronounced kind of like ye in "yes")
Grandmother: Zu Mu
Grandma, Granny: Nai Nai
On the mother's side --
Grandfather: Wai Zu Fu
Grandpa, Papa: Lao Ye
Grandmother: Wai Zu Mu
Grandma, Granny: Lao Lao
