As always, stay tuned here on !comicstrips@lemmy.world for a slow trickle out of Jucika comics, but if you want to find more, here’s a good post with a large collection that /u/JohnnyEnzyme@piefed.social posted last year: https://piefed.social/post/1258520.
I wonder how you are sposed to pronounce her name. I have been assuming juice-ika.
“yutsikah”, with the ut in “yut” sounding like “put”, apparently.

yoo - 'ts-ee - kah
yoo as in you
'ts as in tsunami
ee as in glee
kah as in karate
… is how my brain and mouth are trying to make sense of this.
Apparently Hungarian has a 'tsi / 'tsee sound that is basically like the Japanese 'tsu, just with a different trailing vowel.
For whatever reason, in Japanese, there is only 'tsu, there is no… 'tsah or 'tsee or 'tsoh.
And in Hungarian … there is only 'tsi/'tsee … no 'tsu or 'tsah or 'tsoh.
… I have spent the last hour being baffled and also making consonant and vowel sounds randomly, like a madman.
I believe it’s pronounced something like “YOOTS-ika” in the original Hungarian.
Me, I have an Hungarian uncle, and actually have been to Lac Balaton, where I had to learn some basic Hungarian in order to order ice cream for a few forints. XD
Eh… FWIW?

was it paprika flavoured?
LOL.
No, but much of the local dishes were.
This is what I’ve been hearing from people too.
