You would use seanathair (shan-a-hir) for "grandfather" and seanmháthair

(shan-waw-hir) for "grandmother"; I don't know if Irish has a word for "grandparent". Sean-thuismitheoir?

Are you from Ireland cause my people are from Dublin?

If your people are from Dublin, then they are Irish. It will depend on where you are from, like where you were born and live to determine where you are from. You may have Irish ancestry through your people, but if you were not born in Ireland and don't live there, then you cannot fully claim to be Irish, although you will be able to get an Irish passport, if a parent or grandparent is from Ireland.

If guardianship is appointed to grandparent and step grandparent if biological grandparent dies what right does the step grandparent have in North Carolina?

In North Carolina, if guardianship is appointed to a grandparent and a step-grandparent after the biological grandparent's death, the step-grandparent generally has the same rights as the biological grandparent concerning the care and custody of the child. However, their legal rights may depend on the specifics of the guardianship order and the court's determination of the child's best interests. It's important for the step-grandparent to be included in any legal documentation and to maintain a supportive relationship with the child to uphold their guardianship rights.

Are more Irish-Americans living in the US than there are Irish people living in Ireland?

There are over 6 times more people claiming Irish ancestry in the USA, than people living in Ireland. Claiming to be Irish-American is very subjective, as some may have Irish ancestry that is several generations back, like one great-great-great-grandparent, meaning their link to Ireland is very small. Others may have both parents that are Irish, giving them a much stronger Irish ancestry. The figures don't specify how far back the Irish ancestry is.
