An “Osh” sign printed on the side of a police car.

My granddaughter’s nickname is Osh. It so happens that there’s a city named Osh in Kyrgyzstan.

Former Register-Guard Features Editor Grant Podelco and his wife, Daisy Sindelar, are journalists working in Prague, Czech Republic for Radio Free Europe/Radio Liberty and Daisy recently traveled to Kyrgyzstan to produce a series of stories.

I asked Grant if he would ask Daisy to shoot a picture of an “Osh” sign to show Olivia. She did and this is how Osh looks in Kyrgyz.
