What is the proper pronounciation of the game rummikub? I pronounce it to rhyme with cube, and my wife’s pronounciation rhymes with cub.
I seem to remember that they used to have a line over the “u” in “kub” to indicate a long “u”. Does anyone have an old box around? Here’s the Rummikub Home Page.
Oh, I’m probably thinking of “Husker Du”. None of the Rummikub boxes on eBay show diacritical marks.
I’m afraid I don’t have an official answer, but we always just called it “Rummy Cube.” It made sense to me, as it’s sort of like gin rummy with little blocks.
