Would’ve been better if you hinted that the mother was German too. Like, have him refer to her as “Oma” or something.
Like, idk about where, but in American English, if you’ve got a 1st-gen grandparent, a lot of English-only kids refer to them by the terms in their grandparents language. Especially Greeks, Germans, and Latin-Americans.
Wow, didn’t know that! Might just fix it later, thanks for the input!
I think most Americans know who Oma, Abuela, and Ya-Ya are, just from cultural immersion. Can’t speak for the rest of the world.
