minus-squareDicska@lemmy.worldlinkfedilinkarrow-up7·edit-21 year agoHungarian here. Probably it would sound weird without the ‘fish’ bit, since we call it ‘tonhal’ (‘hal’ meaning fish). I just can’t imagine someone offering some tuna to me, asking ‘Ton?’. EDIT: However, in English, I call it tuna, not tuna fish.
