44/50 with the last two categories 20/20! "Blue blood" refers to people of royal lineage and aristocracy. Since royalty was wealthy enough to pay people to work their farmlands, their skin was pale enough that the blue veins were clearly visible, thus leading people to believe that they had blue blood. Thanks for the quizzes.
Not very good on this one, I'm afraid, but enjoyed it all the same. A person of royal birth is said to have blue blood, but don't believe it, if they bleed, they bleed red just like everyone else.
It has to do with the fact that royalty /nobles used to not go into the sun and walked under a sunscreen, so their skin would stay pale and the veins look blue through the skin; hence the blue blood...
@@detormentis Thanks so much for your inspiring words. Always a pleasure to do and learn from your demanding general knowledge quizzes! With Many Thanks and Best Regards🙏🙏👍👍👌😊 Koksey😊🥂
0:52 "Rabium" should, of course, be "Radium". 1:22 Aristotle died in 323BC. The term "scientist" could hardly predate him by 2 millennia! 7:14 "Luftwaffe" is pronounced LUFT-va-fuh. German "w" is pronounced like the English "v". Odd you missed this as you pronounced "Wehrmacht" correctly. 9:37 "... the king and his government WERE not above the law". 10:26 It's "Aqueduct", not "Aquaduct".
Got 31/50 again. Seems I’m pretty consistent with the numbers of wrong answers. Keep on learning though. And blue blood refers to someone who was of royal birth.
Aristotle is incorrect. The correct name is Aristoteles. For an unknow reason Aristoteles is called Aristotle, and Platon is called Plato. Surprisingly Socrates is called Socrates.
With so many people nowadays exercising using a treadmill or a cycling bike like Peloton, maybe they could use their exercise routine to produce electricity in a small way to charge mobile phones. Just a thought!
Actually muumuu is pronounced "moo-oo moo-oo" in Hawaiian not moomoo. Although you could make an argument that moomoo has become common usage. I took a Hawaiian language night class when I lived there.
Hi Sam. Not really. When I created the channel I was looking for a unique name. Not something with the word "Quiz" in it, as most channels do. The aim was to create a channel that "deters boredom". So a bit of playing with words, and some Google Translate (Latin), I came up with the name. I know boredom in Latin is taedium, but I didn't want something that can be associated with "tedious" 😁. So we have "Detor" meaning giver, and "Mentis" which means "Of the Mind", in latin. Very grandiose 😂🤣😂, though very incorrect. "Giver of the mind" should be dator animi in latin. And no, I don't speak latin, so this was all Google Translate dependent.

Don't worry about your pronunciation. Different countries pronounce things differently, but it is clear what you are saying.

Sean, does the name of your channel have a meaning?
Hi Sam. Not really. When I created the channel I was looking for a unique name. Not something with the word "Quiz" in it, as most channels do. The aim was to create a channel that "deters boredom". So a bit of playing with words, and some Google Translate (Latin), I came up with the name. I know boredom in Latin is taedium, but I didn't want something that can be associated with "tedious" 😁. So we have "Detor" meaning giver, and "Mentis" which means "Of the Mind", in latin. Very grandiose 😂🤣😂, though very incorrect. "Giver of the mind" should be dator animi in latin.
And no, I don't speak latin, so this was all Google Translate dependent.
Which days do your new episodes air?
I try to do a new quiz every 5 days.
Wonderful; we'll be watching. Cheers!
