It seems a bit weird that Dutch is split up into dialects while for example German isnt really

To be precise, it is Low Saxon which is split up so much, not the Dutch language

You're right, nowadays it is spoken in the Americas so it doesn't belong on this quiz. I will delete it, unfortunately this resets the quiz.

I am wondering why "Dargin" isn't accepted for Dargwa and "Flemish" isn't accepted for West Flemish

You are right about Dargin, no idea what went wrong there. Thanks for pointing it out. "Flemish" is not accepted for West Flemish because it's quite different. Flemish is Dutch as it is spoken in Flanders. It is mutually comprehensible with Dutch as spoken in the Netherlands. Like American and British English, there are differences but it's definitely the same language. West Flemish is a dialect of Dutch which is so divergent that it is considered a separate language by my source.
