"Großmutter" is the correct High German term for grandmother.
But colloquial term "Oma" (grandma) and the diminutive "Omi" (granny) are more common.
Grandmother or Grandma = Maummi
(Pronounced like Mommy, just spelled different.)
It's oma or großmutter

These German Pennsylvania immigrants are called the Pennsylvania Dutch, a misnomer- the German word for German is "Deutsch," but these people were mistakenly called Dutch.
In German, grandpa is Großvater or Opa.
Ich vermisse mein Großvater is the translation in German. It is translated from English to German. German is mostly spoken in the European countries.

The expression "Pennsylvania Dutch" referring to this group of people is an alteration of the word "Deutsch" meaning "German." The Pennsylvania Dutch are actually as much of Swiss origin as German.
