Best Answer

Baba/babba is a Yiddish word for grandmother. Some people might be more familiar with the pronunciation "Bubbe", however, both of these pronunciations are correct. The different pronunciations of this word can be explained by the existence of different Yiddish dialects based on country - German, Russian, Polish, and Ukranian.

On a personal note, almost everyone I know (including my family) uses the 'babba' pronunciation.
