I wonder what it's called in Austria
Depending on where in Austria:
Kas, Käs or Kaas
Probably something like topfenschnarkel.
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
Ost - Norwegian
Ost - Swedish
Ost - Danish
Ah yes, the synostics
Nim wib ngogh
Formatge.
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.
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.
Even if it was omelette of cheese it would be "omelette de fromage"
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.

Cheese.

جبنة Jubna
Sajt. Funny enough sajt is my default test word eg.: is google working let me search for sajt
For the non-native: that 'S' is pronounced 'sh' and 'j' is pronounced 'y'. It almost sounds like shite.
Queso - Spanish
Cheese - English
"Too expensive."
