I keep pronouncing the word Tsuyu incorrectly as Tsúyù when the correct pronunciation is Tsùyú ― meaning "Rainy Season"(梅雨(つゆ)).
If you say Tsúyù, that means "Dipping Sauce"(汁(つゆ)).
And in case you were wondering, no the average Japanese speakers will flat out not understand you if you get the pitch accents incorrectly. It's as difficult as a Japanese speaker coming up to you and saying "You like Red?" (meaning: "Do you like to read?").
