Hello,
I used to call my grandfather Zedzee. I asked my father why and he said his grandparents came from Czechoslovakia and it was passed down. Translations of grandfather to Czech just aren't close to the sound of Zedzee. Can someone shed any light onto this word?
Thank you
David
@David US/Au hey there... That's maybe a lost in translation situation.
In cz, grandpa is called dědeček (sounds: jedechek), as the ending of the words change form when it is used in different situations you can hear variations such as dědo (sounds: Jedo)
In sk, it's similar word, not a big variation. But there, dad is called ocko (sounds: otzko) when changes to diminutive sounds ozzy. Perhaps with the traveling, the sound of "dědči" morphed into "zedzee" - "zedzi"
