Context: .Ca bright grains are small and repetitive brightenings ubiquitously found in the quiet Sun. Aims: .The relationship between the formation of Ca bright grains and the dynamics in the chromosphere and the photosphere is studied. Methods: .We simultaneously observed the time series of spectra in Ca II H, Hα, and Fe I with the horizontal spectrograph of the Domeless Solar Telescope (DST) at Hida Observatory. Results: .Our wavelet analysis revealed that the occurrence of Ca II H 2V brightenings are correlated with enhanced 5 mHz velocity oscillations in the chromosphere and the photosphere. Conclusions: .Ca bright grains can be explained by acoustic shocks in the chromosphere that are associated with 5 mHz oscillations in the photosphere below.
