Curious about the answer to "most languages spoken". What's the criteria? Because I have to imagine there are more unique languages spoken in "melting pot" countries like the USA.

Level ∞

Apr 23, 2020

Countries like PNG, Indonesia, and Vanuatu have little pockets of indigenous people who speak their own language.

Level 72

Apr 23, 2020

PNG has over 800. Just including native languages, the US has roughly 100 something.

Level 78

Apr 25, 2020

How about India? It has a lot of native languages. About how many people need to speak a language for it to be counted as a language for a language quiz?

Level 74

Jan 27, 2025

India has around 500 indigenous languages.

Level 65

Only one person has to speak it

Level 76

let's make it two, so they have someone to talk to :)

Level 72

Apr 25, 2020

It's debatable which country has the most, India would probably be in the top 5.

Level 67

USA is not unique for its so-called "melting pot" nature.

Look up the list of the most diverse countries and these are usually in Africa in fact.

Level 89

Sep 25, 2022

The United States is actually fairly unique in that aspect. It is a massive country with cultures from all around the world. While countries in Africa and Southern Asia have a large number of languages due geographic isolation and the presence of tribal society, the number of languages in the United States is due to the immigrant presence in the United States.

The comment said "in 'melting pot' countries *like* the USA," as in "here's one example of a larger group." I swear, some of you people are pathological. You see any comment, however innocuous, that kinda sorta compliments the US, and you need to drop in to remind everyone that, in fact, other countries are better. Yeesh.

Papua new Guinea clearly has more vowels than Indonesia.

+14

Level 76

Apr 24, 2020

More? a u e i, for Papua New Guinea and i o e a for Indonesia, 4 for both

It clearly says "different vowels" ;)

Level 36

Jun 28, 2020

"United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland" (the official name for the country) has 5 vowels

Level 57

Jun 28, 2020

@alsion it said official jet punk names so it would just be United Kingdom (e, i, o, u)

Level 75

United States of America?

Level 70

The official JetPunk name is just USA.

Jun 27, 2020

No, it is United States.

Level 64

Feb 5, 2024

Agreed that this quiz should accept United States of America as an answer. Quiz should not be a test of the variant of the name that JetPunk uses. The other comments indicate why excluding USA is a counterintuitive and poor choice here:

Jetpunk commonly accepts DRC as the acronym for Democratic Republic of the Congo; and this quiz would accept either answer for the "vowels" question.

Jetpunk commonly accepts USA as the acronym for United States of America; but because the "Jetpunk name" of the country is just "United States" (which doesn't match the acronym, and shame on Jetpunk for that), this quiz doesn't accept either answer.

Quizzes shouldn't be about syntax questing, they should be about knowledge. United States of America should be an accepted answer. Use some other standard than "Jetpunk name".

Can you really not be bothered to type two more letters. Is this really how lazy we are now? It’s not like you’d even do it on a timed quiz. It probably takes .01 seconds to write the extra -ia. Fair enough for KSA for Saudi Arabia or NZ for New Zealand but that is straight up lazy!

Level 76

Jun 28, 2020

Everytime I need to type the total length of saudi arabia in a timed quiz, I sigh.. and time stands still, It

seems to take forever and so many vowels that can go in the wrong place ;).

Obviously I am exaggerating a bit, but it ís the only one which I wish was shorter/had an abbreviation

(And yes that is including the ones that are longer, they just flow better, I never use png, always type

papua new guinea btw)

MIght I suggest Sa-Ar as an abbreviation? :) Or S-Ar(a)

Just type KSA (Kingdom of Saudi Arabia)

I was confused when 'France' didn't work for whitest flag

Indonesian flag is 50% white, French flag is only 33% white

I believe it's a joke regarding the French's supposed penchant for surrender.

I don't think I ever played a quiz on here where 'Papua New Guinea' is a correct answer to so many questions!

Level 76

Yea I noticed it too

Level 56

Jun 26, 2022

Some countries pop up repeatedly in these quizzes so it's etched in my memory now to type countries like Papua New Guinea, Brazil, etc

Actually there is no such thing as a part of Serbia that break off into a new UN member state. If you think about Montenegro, that was the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro or previously known by the name the Federal Republic of Yugoslavia. With both territories defined by their own borders.

Level 86

Tricky but in the end Serbia is the sole successor of S&M.

Level ∞

Oct 16, 2025

Yup.

Level 81

Oct 16, 2025

In the end yes, but still not the same thing.

Level 96

Oct 17, 2025

Montenegro seceded from the State Union of Serbia and Montenegro, not from Serbia. Thus, both countries became independent.

Level ∞

Oct 17, 2025

But Serbia is the successor state of Serbia and Montenegro.

Clearly we have to accept Serbia as an answer. Can't say I look forward to dozens of repetitive comments.

I went to type "DRC" for the last one (which would have worked), but I got it accidentally with "DR" ;)

I found this one very easy. The results seem to reflect that. Maybe add a couple trickier questions into the mix?
