-it just occurred to me that tsuwm rhymes with cwm--well, almost.

I thought you'd pronounce tsuwm with about 4 syllables.

Americans? Monoglots? But seriously, I don't think there is a word.

Sorry, I lost track of the theme of this thread until
va-vavoom's question. The earlier stuff was too "out there"
to grasp my interest. I am afraid I have to agree with Zm
and say I do not know of a word to fit the question.
Your's is good however, as good as any, better than most.
