A rather accurate prescribtion would be to pronounce it as "more far".

More, as in "More money" and far, as in "Far away".

An easy way to remember how to say the word Morfar (meaning "mothers father") is to think of the english word "mormon", whose pronounciation is very similar as the swedish word Mormor, which means "mothers mother".

Summaring this up, just think of the word "mormon". Then take away the last part (-mon) and replace it with -far. This way you get "Morfar".

Sadly there is no sound in English that is eqivalent to the o's in mormor.

Try mourmour with the ou like in mourn and it's similar.
