Not bad. I made 8 out of 13. Nevertheless it’s great.
Glad you enjoyed the quiz, Gil!
Can you believe it?? My result: 9 out of 13. Just guessing
Then you are a very good guesser, my friend! Well done 🙂
Thanks a lot. I like your quizes
I was surprised at myself. It was fun. You got 6 out of 13 right!
Not so bad
Not a bad score at all, Lacho! It is nice to surprise oneself sometimes 🙂
i missed a couple, had never heard numbers in the language. Great quiz!
Thanks for going for it, Doc. I bet it would have helped if I’d included Thai!
put pasa thai?
it would have, darn you!
No, I’ve never even been there. I was going to include it, but the transliteration I found was horrible and I wasn’t sure it would even appear properly on everyone’s screen: H̄nụ̀ng s̄xng s̄ām s̄ī̀ h̄̂ā 😮
that is correct however
I believe you, but most people would have no clue what that was supposed to sound like though!
that is true, thai is a vocal language similar to Cantonese in that it requires the intonation be proper!
Looks like a great one. I know none of them.
Do you really mean you got zero? Or you’re just not going outside your comfort zone?!
I did not even try this one. It wouldve been all guesses. I know nothing about them. sighs..
It’s a tough one, alright. You can see that from most of the results 🙂
Fun, creative and informative as always. Wild guesses most of them but got 10 out of 13 right!
10 out of 13 is a very nice score for a quiz like this one! Well done and thank you for participating 🙂
6 out of 13, but they were mostly guesses.
Not a bad score just the same. Thanks for playing, Glory!
A very creative and informative quiz but I had no idea. I managed to guess four right.
It’s an area outside of most westerners’ comfort zone, that’s for sure!
11/13 I knew it that spending so much time on the internet will pay off some day.
That’s amazing, Ellie! It is clear that you spend your time on the internet more profitably than I do 🙂 Well done!
Oh my Norman, I am in the wrong country for this one. 🙂
LOL Carol, I fear most of us are! I made it on request from a couple of Filipino and Kiwi friends on Facebook who said my “1 to 5 in European Languages” quiz was unfair to them – so let’s see how it goes 🙂
