la vielle
e
This is the grandmother whose house I am living in. I don't really know her name, we just call her "la vielle," or the old one.
It is actually pretty common to call people by their occupation, or their age. You call people "taxi man" and "old guy" and "player of drums." And obviously "toubab."
