Best Answer

The language used in Austria is German.

There are regional dialects that may also have words for "Grandmother",

but they are more in the direction of pronunciation than the written word.

"Grossmutter" is the correct High German term.

But the colloquial term "Oma" is used far more often throughout the German speaking world..

I'm not sure about the "austro-bavarian" part, but in the west (where I'm from) you say "Oma" (which is more informal) or "Grossmutter" (which is a bit more formal).

As far as I know this is pretty wide spread (so also in Bavaria, I guess) and it will be understood in all parts of Germany or Austria.
