jole and Richardrichard9, can I throw in my $0.02 worth?
in English (and some other languages): B flat; B; E flat in German (and some other languages): B; H; Es
(I was playing in various German oom-pah bands every Oktoberfest through the 80's and 90's. In the lugging bands they'd just call the key – auf Deutsch – and we were straight in. Some of the music was a bit chancy ... but the beer was always great!)
G clef = treble clef. (Note how the curly bit circles the G line.)
These days, regarding brass instruments in classical situations (in the U.K., America, Australia, Japan, etc.), only the trumpets and horns are given transposed parts. However, in some countries and in some situations, all the brass instruments are treated as transposing. In a British brass band, for instance, everybody (except the bass trombonist and the relevant percussion) reads a transposed treble clef part. (To get your head around this otherwise weird concept, think of the clarinet and saxophone families. Exactly the same thing.)
With the "normal" Bb tuba transposition, to hear this sound (the first note of Fnugg): [Grrr – this "add melody" thing is giving me the heebie-jeebies!!]To hear the Bb on the 2nd line (up) of the bass clef ...
You would have to play: the C on the third space (up) of the treble clef.
Some people approach this by thinking: "read up a fourth and add two sharps," or, the equivalent "read up a fourth and subtract two flats."
