Shishcaba
I believe it's Khlav Kalash, as in the following:
Vendor: Khlav kalash! Khlav kalash! Homer: Can you get me some pizza? Vendor: No pizza, only khlav kalash. Homer: Ok I'll take a small bowl. Vendor: No bowl. Stick. http://uloc.nerdtank.org/media/4f22_khlav_kalash.jpg
Shish kebab /SIS k@bAb/ is a form of cooked meat, often on skewers:

Döner kebab -- I had one of those in England. It was pretty damn wonderful!
As I was watching Love, Actually, I noticed that Liam Neeson pronounced "kebab" to rhyme with "flab". In the US, it rhymes with "bob". (Or I should say, OUR version of "bob", which has the long A as in "father".) |
