The ancient Egyptian language has no words for grandmother or grandfather; you would have to say "the mother of my mother" or "the mother of my father". Hieroglyphs do not record any vowels, only consonants, so we do not know how the Egyptians pronounced the words, but they are written as: mwt mwt=i (the mother of my mother) mwt it=i (the mother of my father) Note that the letter i is used for a consonant that does not exist in English.
