Difficult , if obscure quiz . Got 14/20 . Knowledge of foreign words can be a bit hit and miss . Seemed like an easy question immediately followed by a difficulty question . Difficult to gain much confidence doing it !🤔
Right? I thought they misspelled it on purpose so in my opinion only the other 2 were standing and...I got it wrong! Why would India host the celebration of, you know, bad memories? :D
Im pretty sure there is a setting in TH-cam to play faster. I have made some of the most recent videos slightly faster as I have received this feedback prior. Thanks for your feedback :)
Q14--"known also known"? Re. Q17, the word "Eucharist" is referred to as Communion in most Protestant denominations. In Q20, it should be Hillary (double L).
Question 20 is grammatically incorrect. OVER and FOR are both prepositions, take your pick but not both. (Keep 'over' and drop 'for'... Excellent quiz, I got them all right having heard of cynology by some fluke..
Thanks Jenifer. I have recognised grammar has been fairly problematic in the eariler videos (when the channel was quite small). Hopefully the more recent videos are better. Thanks for your interest and feedback.
With all due respect, if an adult cannot at the very least know more than 1/2 the answers to these 20 question quizzes we have a serious ignorance problem in our country.
Some of those questions are specific to particular countries - sure I remember hearing of the Whitewater affair, I also recall Watergate, but they're not front of mind over here on the other side of the Pacific - we have our own Pollies' Shenanigans going on (current and historical). If you're not an Aussie, would you know what happened to Harold Holt or what "The Dismissal" was about without looking them up?
Kathy Cascone. Wait...if "an adult" (you do realize that this means ONE adult) doesn't know at least half of these we're in trouble? Guess we're in trouble, because there are millions of adults, not just one, who don't know these answers.
huuu not much 11/20... dang most of those answers were me being a good guesser haha, i was surprised about the accommodate thiing, i did not it was spelled like that...
Salzburg didn't belong to Austria when Mozart was born there! After the Vienna Congress it became a part of Austria ! But most Austrians believe Mozart has been born as an Austrian, Beethoven too, but not Hitler !
Does the person who makes these trivia videos need to proofread them? (A) No; they're perfect (B) Maybe; there's one error (C) YES; for spelling, grammar, word usage, and clarity. Hint: The answer is NOT (A) or (B).
Difficult? Really? Not for me. Got one wrong. It was clearly a lot harder to compile than it was to answer! Noticed about half-a-dozen spelling and grammar mistakes - and that's not counting the two incorrect spellings of 'accommodate', lol. So I'm guessing it was a difficult trivia quiz for someone who struggles with basic English.
Lol. I think it depends on which country you are in. (I have attached a poor reference (www.superdream.com/news-blog/misspelt-or-misspelled-7-differences-between-british-and-american-english). I have actually had that mentioned to me a few times in different videos.
And I choose 50% correct to be polite. Anyone who attended college, and are not regularly scoring more than half on most tests is a little pathetic. Sorry to be so harsh.
CHRIS KIENLE You want it maybe to be a plant or mineral? Birds, fish, insects, reptiles, mollusks, slugs, mammals, starfish, whatever....they are ALL animals.
_9. Which one of these words is spelt correctly?_ None of them. Spelt is a type of wheat. I think you mean _spelled._ C'mon Great Britain, your butchering your own language...
Hi Herranton, point noted, but the word 'spelt' may be correct depending on which language you use. If I google 'Spelt (in Australia)' I get -> past and past participle of spell. If I google 'spell' (in Australia) I get -> spell verb past tense: spelt; past participle: spelt. However I can also see 'Spelt' as a type of wheat. I found this on the internet too "In all other main varieties of English, spelt and spelled both work as the past tense and past participle of spell, at least where spell means to form words letter by letter or (with out) to make clear. Outside the U.S., the two forms are interchangeable in these uses, and both are common".
20/20. Easy.
20/20. Lucky guessed French Schneider CA1 and Chinese Aircraft Carriers.

I enjoy them, but there is always a misspelled word in the video.
Dang I only got 13 questions correct.
Q14--"known also known"?

All you need is a little music 🎧

There is no such place as Glascow.
I got maybe about 14 of them correct,friends.
Not to good on this category???
09/20 !!! Pretty Piss poor !!!
Never even heard of cynology, even the auto-spellcheck here doesn't like it :)
"The word is not found in major English dictionaries and it is not a recognized scientific discipline in English-speaking countries." I missed it too.
ceres is an asteroid not a dwarf planet
Yes. Exactly. That's why I got it wrong
Salzburg didn't belong to Austria when Mozart was born there! After the Vienna Congress it became a part of Austria ! But most Austrians believe Mozart has been born as an Austrian, Beethoven too, but not Hitler !
so who did Salzburg belong to before Austria? I'm going to guess Prussia, not sure

Does the person who makes these trivia videos need to proofread them?
(A) No; they're perfect
(B) Maybe; there's one error
(C) YES; for spelling, grammar, word usage, and clarity.
Hint: The answer is NOT (A) or (B).
I have no idea where the error is!
But I did wonder where Glascow was, I have been to Glasgow maybe it's somewhere close to it.
Difficult? Really? Not for me. Got one wrong. It was clearly a lot harder to compile than it was to answer! Noticed about half-a-dozen spelling and grammar mistakes - and that's not counting the two incorrect spellings of 'accommodate', lol.

U allow ur answer time too long,n ur question time too short..otherwie ok
"MISSPELT"?????? ....Isn't that spelled; "MISSPELLED"???
Lol. I think it depends on which country you are in. (I have attached a poor reference (www.superdream.com/news-blog/misspelt-or-misspelled-7-differences-between-british-and-american-english). I have actually had that mentioned to me a few times in different videos.

LGBTQ+ questions
spelled not spelt
The Oxford- and the Chambers dictionary both say "spelt" is correct.
@@joepkortekaas8813 Hau'oli Makahiki Hou! As Metallica says nothing else matters!
And I choose 50% correct to be polite. Anyone who attended college, and are not regularly scoring more than half on most tests is a little pathetic. Sorry to be so harsh.
Kathy Cascone wow calm down
Since when was a fish an animal?
CHRIS KIENLE You want it maybe to be a plant or mineral?
Birds, fish, insects, reptiles, mollusks, slugs, mammals, starfish, whatever....they are ALL animals.
Fish are members of the animal kingdom, phylum chordata.
Slept through Yr7 Science?
Megan Williams Year 7?? A six year old child in first grade (US) would know a fish is an animal!
Kindergartners know Phylum, Genus, Species?
