How would I say "grandfather" in Arabic?
Also: Aunt, Uncle, Grandmother, and Father.
I can find them in the Arabic alphabet, but I don't know how to pronounce that! and I need to look up books/articles too back the info, so it's hard to search in non-latin characters.

grandfather (from either side) : جدّ ("jadd")
aunt (a parent’s sister or sister-in-law) : عمة ("ʕámma", paternal), خالة ("xāla", maternal)
uncle, brother (or brother-in-law) of someone’s parent : (paternal) عم (ar) ("3amm") m, خال (ar) ("khaal") m

If you are having problem with pronunciation, I recommend you " Google Translation" ONLY AS A WAY TO teach you the difficult word Sounds or Pronunciation, it has a very Clear and Good Dialect to learn.
On the other side the Translation was provided above is really good and accurate.
