The Hebrew for 'grandfather' is "SAH-bah", and has come into wider use in recent decades. The corresponding term for 'grandmother' is "SAHV-tah".

Earlier, and still widely taught to children among Ashkenazic Jews, is the name "ZAY-deh" or "ZAY-dee" for 'grandfather'. The other half is "BAW-bee" for 'grandmother'. Both words come from the Russian.
