Turkish also has distinct words for grandmothers that works in a similar way. Father is baba, mother is anne and for grandmothers we have "babaanne" "anneanne" (generally pronounced & shortened as "babane" and "anane")
But interestingly no distinct words for grandfathers, both grandfathers are called "dede" (so no "babababa" or "annebaba")
