Slovak term or phrase: syczlak
I am not sure. It is the last name of Moe the Bartender on "The Simpsons" and I am in the middle of a trivia contest and this is one of the questions: taken phonetically, what would Moe's last name mean in most Slovak languages.

Explanation:
your word syczlak does not mean anything in Slovak Language but spelling "syczak" phonetically in the Czech Language means someone who has sort of a devilish mind, doing bad things to people. I hope this helps. If not please let me know.
