This alarm clock is very special to me because it was given to me by my late grandmother and I continue to use it
We love to receive gifts and they are very special for us, especially if the person who has given us the gift has died. It is a way of remembering them.
In the first sentence, we are simply explaining that we use the clock our grandmother gave to us as an alarm clock. You can also say "left me" instead of "gave me" and it has a similar meaning.
In the second sentence, we are explaining that the clock is very special to us. It is not an ordinary clock. It has some value in comparison with a regular clock.
My "late" grandmother means my "dead" grandmother. It has the exact same meaning.
プレゼントをもらうのはいいものですね。これは特別な物になります。プレゼントをくれた人が亡くなってしまったときには特に。その人を思い出させてくれる物になります。
一つ目の例ではシンプルに「祖母からもらった時計を目覚まし時計として使っている」と伝えています。"gave me" の代わりに "left me" を使うこともできます、意味は変わりません。
二つ目の例では、「この時計は特別」と伝えています。普通の時計ではない。特別な価値を持っているということ。
"My late grandmother" は "My dead grandmother"（私の亡くなった祖母）という意味です。これらは全く同じ意味です。
This is the alarm clock that my grandmother gave me. I use it everyday.
'.....that _______ gave me' is an expression used to indicate that someone has given you something. The '___' should be filled with a noun (a title or name, usually).

There are many names we can use to talk about our grandmother. Common names are "Gran, Gram, Granny, Grandma, Nan, Nanna...".
When someone gives us an item, it is called a "gift" or a "present".
"The alarm clock was gifted to me by my grandmother.".
祖母の話をするときに使える呼び方は沢山あります。
よく使われるのは、Gran, Gram, Granny, Grandma, Nan, Nannaです。
誰かから何か物を頂いたとき、それは、gift、またはpresentと言います。
例：
The alarm clock was gifted to me by my grandmother.
その目覚まし時計は、祖母から頂いたものです。
My alarm clock has sentimental value - This statement brings across a certain amount of emotion with it by using the word "sentimental" (normally to do with anything mental) as it brings back memories to that person. For example:
"My alarm clock has sentimental value because my grandma gave it to me." or "This ring/earrings/necklace/etc has sentimental value as my grandma left to me." (Insinuating that your grandma has passed away).
I use an alarm clock my grandma gave me. Standard reply, with hidden emotion.
"I use an alarm clock my grandma gave me. It gets me out of bed every morning!"
My alarm clock has sentimental value.
ーこれは、その人の思い出を呼び覚ますような"sentimental"（感傷的な）という単語を使うことによって、いくぶんの感情を伴っている言い方です。
例：
"My alarm clock has sentimental value because my grandma gave it to me."
私の目覚まし時計には、思い入れがあります。なぜならば、祖母がくれた物だからです。
"This ring/earrings/necklace/etc has sentimental value as my grandma left to me." (Insinuating that your grandma has passed away).
この指輪/イアリング/ネックレスは、祖母が私に残してくれたもので思い出があります。（祖母が、亡くなったことを遠回しに言ってます）
I use an alarm clock my grandma gave me.
ーこれは、感情を表に出さない標準的な言い方です。
例：
"I use an alarm clock my grandma gave me. "
祖母から頂いた目覚まし時計を使ってます。
"It gets me out of bed every morning!"
毎朝、これが私を起こしてくれます。
A nice and poetic way to describe when someone has given you something, is to say that they have 'gifted' it to you. Which comes from the word gift, which is another name for a present.
I got this clock from my grandam, and I use it for an alarm.
"I use the clock my grandma gave me as an alarm. " In this response you're telling the person that the clock your grandma gave to you, you use as/for an alarm. Both as and for can be used interchangeably in these two responses, as the meaning is the same.
"I got this clock from my grandam, and I use it for an alarm." The as is a simile and it's meaning is like. For implies the use of the clock. For example: She uses the sponge for cleaning the dishes. Here for is used to explain the use of the sponge.
"I use the clock my grandma gave me as an alarm."（祖母がくれた時計を目覚ましに使っています）
- ここでは、祖母がくれた時計を目覚ましとして使っていると伝えています。二つの回答では、"as" と "for" は置き換えて使えます、同じ意味です。
"I got this clock from my grandam, and I use it for an alarm."（この時計は祖母からもらいました。今目覚ましとして使っています）
- "as" は直喩です、「～のように」という意味です。"for" は時計の使い方を示します。例えば：
She uses the sponge for cleaning the dishes.（そのスポンジは皿洗いに使っています）
ここでは、"for" はスポンジの使い方を説明しています。
