You need to accept more options for keister. I tried ass, rear, rear end, behind, tuckus...if you're accepting butt instead of buttocks it makes sense.

Using the slang word "butt" in a quiz that identifies what other slang words mean is not right. This quiz needs to use a proper word like "bottom" or "posterior" for the answer. No "asses", "tuckuses", or "butts" or any other of the many words we have developed to describe our cheeks of glory please.

Bottom and posterior are euphamisms. Who draws the line? You?

I'd say 'bottom' is the closest you can get to a straightforward word in English. 'Posterior' has enough of an air of gentility to suggest it's a euphemism. 'Butt' definitely doesn't work, because it's slang - the whole point of the quiz is to translate out of slang.

Agreed. Not accepting “afraid” and “scared” for cowardly is pretty stringent.

There was a very popular TV commercial in the US about an annoying camel asking, "What day is it?" It's hump day!!! (The point being that having that brand of insurance makes a person happier than a camel on hump day.)

Should accept other definitions for Grub, such as Dirty/unclean/uncouth (see definition 3)

It's used to refer to a person here (Aus) too - on a sports field for a dirty/niggly player but also for someone who generally behaves unethically or immorally

Specifying “Noun” should make it clear it’s not looking for the adjectival definition you mention.

I agree with most of the above comments, there are many, many alternative answers which should work here for a lot of the clues. For me in particular I expected Bottom to work for Keister and Chicken, Scared or Afraid for Lily-Livered. Please consider being more flexible on the entire quiz.

This should be an accepted alternative. It's the first thing that comes up when you google "big house", and it's a nickname (the real name is Michigan Stadium) which is slang in a sense.

Any other Canadians cringe at being called a Canuck? Am I just overly sensitive? Not even sure what a Canuck is. Maybe a regional thing? It's a big country.

As far as I know, it's not derogatory, or at least, I haven't heard it used that way. It's American slang for someone from Canada; I don't think it has any other meaning. It seems to be similar to calling someone from New Zealand a Kiwi.

I only just now found out Canuck can even be used derogatorily; I always assumed it was just like “Yank” for American. I mean, you guys have a whole hockey team with the name!

I wonder if it's similar to a lot folks from Newfoundland objecting to "Newfie" because in some contexts it's used as a slur to mean stupid. Since you're more likely to hear it in rural small towns with more rednecks, it holds that connotation to some people

But to be honest, I think the real reason people roll their eyes at Canuck is because Canadians rarely use it to refer to themselves, and when they do they usually exaggerate the accent and lean into the stereotypes for attention and because they lack a cultural identity. There is a Canadian accent but it's subtle in most people, and I'd argue there is a Canadian culture (moreso provincial) and it's more complex and frankly more interesting than just "hockey, tim hortons, sorry about the war crimes eh". But that's what obviously sets us apart from Americans so that's what people cling to

Good idea but frustrating quiz. Tried numerous synonyms for lily-livered but not cowardly, so no credit for that. Agree with other comments that there needs to be a wider range of answers for the clues rather than one particular equivalent word. On the other hand, have heard of other terms for ''Jimmy Hat'' but not the one chosen, so I guess I have learned something today!

Amusing series, thanks! One gripe though: three of these questions are repeats. Pooch was previously used in quiz #3, Kicks and Starkers were used in #2. I only know this because I just took all four in succession.
