Queijo (pronounced ‘keijo’)
That is not how you pronounce Keijo. (I’m just teasing, as it’s a Finnish name and you’re just estimating a pronunciation. We should all learn to use the IPA I think.)
Kummeli Jackpot — Keijoa huijataan
We call it “juusto” pronounced yuuh-sto
Panir/paneer - Kurdish

Sajt. Funny enough sajt is my default test word eg.: is google working let me search for sajt
Magyar?
For the non-native: that ‘S’ is pronounced ‘sh’ and ‘j’ is pronounced ‘y’. It almost sounds like shite.
Juusto - Finnish
Keju!
Sounds like a Portuguese creole or a language similar to Portuguese, is it? :)
It’s Indonesian :)
brânză
Fromage - French (with other informal words such as “fromton” or “claquos”)
Claquos ?! Je le connaissais pas celui là. Je vais le réutiliser au prochain repas de famille ;)
J’ai voulu vérifier l’orthographe, et autant c’est bon, autant a priori c’est spécifiquement le camembert, en tout cas d’après le wiktionnaire. Perso je l’utilise pour tous les fromages, mais y’a peut-être des puristes de l’argot qui m’y reprendraient.
Omelette du fromage.
The only French I know, thanks to Dexter’s Laboratory.
It’s also incorrect! The dish is omelette au fromage. That’s because it’s an omelette with cheese and not of cheese.
Thank you, I knew what it meant to say, but my auto-translate (in my brain) pictured a disc of fried cheese initially, and I was wondering why it felt wrong. I know just enough French to get myself into trouble.
That’s because it’s an omelette with cheese and not of cheese
These are Americans we’re talking about. Maybe it is an omelette of cheese?
ngl it’s about half and half whenever I make one. 🖐️🫣
Disclaimer: not American, I just like cheese.
Damn it, Dee Dee!
