When you order a tuna fish sandwich, do you say "tuna" or "tuna fish"? (lemmy.world)

Hungarian here. Probably it would sound weird without the 'fish' bit, since we call it 'tonhal' ('hal' meaning fish). I just can't imagine someone offering some tuna to me, asking 'Ton?'.

EDIT: However, in English, I call it tuna, not tuna fish.
