I’d argue with the Titanic question being easy. Me being a 12 year old kid (and a lot of JetPunkers being younger), we couldn’t care less about actors and whatnot so wouldn’t know anything about them.

Eh, I’ve never seen Titanic and I still got it. There’s always going to be a group who doesn’t know the answers to certain questions, but for the general population I’d say it’s pretty easy.

If Leo was a one-off actor who hadn't been in much since I could understand that. But he has been in a bunch of famous movies since then. But yeah it's the kind of cultural thing that gets stuck in your head if you were say, 11 when it came out.

I'm not North American and they still rhyme for me. Curious as to how people are pronouncing 'dune' to make it not rhyme!

In the UK at least, 'dune' and 'June' essentially sound the same and I think both clearly rhyme with moon.

As a native English speaker, they certainly rhyme in the correct pronunciation in North America (where this website and many of its users are from). It's valid to note that it might not rhyme for all dialects, but to disregard those where it does rhyme, and claiming to know more than native speakers is quite pretentious
brandybuck96

Yes, while the intial vowel is different in British English (/dʒ/ not /d/, the vowel sound is still the same (/uː/), so it's a rhyme, while perhaps seeming less obviously one.

British English: /djuːn/, /dʒuːn/ (dune), /muːn/ (moon). The vowel sounds are the same so it's a rhyme.

I think it depends on context. In casual speech and in some rule books, "piece" is used syonymously with "chessman" and refers to any figure on the board, pawns included.

But in the context of official play and commentary on official play, a "piece" is understood as anything other than a pawn. A minor piece is a knight or a bishop, while a major piece is a queen or a rook. For example, among chess players, "winning a piece" would only mean winning something more valuable than a pawn, whereas winning a pawn would be described as simply "winning a pawn".

If you're going to assert something is wrong on a technicality, you should really make an effort to support your assertion. I'd genuinely like to know what the issue is.
Deathranger999

Level 63
Apr 26, 2023
According to the Wikipedia article on "Chess pieces", there are multiple definitions for the phrase. One is just an indicator for any "chessman" on the board, and another (most commonly used during play or when discussing games/theory) indicates any of the chessmen on the board that aren't pawns. So the original commenter is right in some contexts, but wrong in this one.
