Is tuna a long U word?

That's a fun question! Let's break it down:

* Long U words are words where the letter "u" makes a long "oo" sound, like in "flute" or "tune."

* Tuna does have a "u" in it, but it doesn't make a long "oo" sound. It has a short "u" sound, like in "cup."

So, tuna is not a long U word. 😊
