no. if you said-Grandma, did this.. etc. without the "my" then you would capitilize it.

nope it is a common noun..so it is lower case.

if you are using "Grandma" as her name, then yes. But if you are going to call her by her name, lets say, Nina. The saying "My grandma, Nina, inspires me."
But if you were to say
"My Grandma inspires me."
sorry, I know thats hard to understand, and I think I explained it in a confusing way :(
Ask, and I'll try to explain it better, if you want!
Good Luck wiht your essay!! Its very sweet of you to pick your Grandma!!

Grandma is capitalized, my grandma is not unless you are useing it as a name
]
"Grandma, may I have some soup?" When you use it like that and just say it alone, then it is capitalized.
"My grandma has big feet," If you use it like this, then it's lowecause and the my is capatalized.
]
Just Grandma? Capitalized. My grandma? Lower case. This is because Grandma is her name just as is Mary or Sue. My grandma, for example, is lower case because you wouldn't say," My Sue brought me cookies!". You would say Sue, which would be capitalized.

no it shouldnt be, the only way you would capitalize something like that would be if you could replace it with a name... like "my betty" wouldnt sound right so it would not be capitalized,but...well i cant think of when you would capitalize it but you get the point right? hope i helped

No, "grandma" does not have to be capitalized, since it's not a proper noun.
]
When you use the word "my" in front of grandma, it isn't capitalized.
You will, however, want to capitalize grandma when you're sort of calling her grandma in a way that would make it sound like her name. Like this:
"Yesterday, Grandma said I was her favorite in the family."
or like this
"Dad, Grandma and Grandpa left the door open."
Hope this helps.

no because grandma isn't proper you only capitalize proper things like the actual name
