Capital-S Southern Alberta? Otherwise you'd have to say Calgary is biggest in small-s southern Alberta.

The only way to make that clue reasonable is "largest city south of Calgary."

Agreed. The clue is inaccurate with a lowercase "s," but accurate with an uppercase "S."

The quiz is about the letter L. I don't remember Calgary starting with the letter L.

Lethbridge? You must be joking! Sarah Palin could see USA from there.

I always thought that French-speaking countries of the Americas are not considered a part of Latin America - I might be wrong about the French Caribbean and French Guiana, but I am pretty sure I am right about the Francophone Canada and St Pierre et Miquelon.I recommend you change the "Romance language" clue to "Spanish and Portuguese".

The latin america one is a little bit vague, French and English are also romance languages.

French is but English isn't. The core of English is of Anglo-Saxon origin. It took heavy influence from Norman French later and evolved over time but it is still classified as a Germanic language.

Nope. English is a Germanic language.

In a quiz ostensibly covering two continents, it is not necessary to have two thirds of the questions all about one country!

Fill us in on other L-places that would be known to a wide sampling of English speakers here.

Of the 13 of 21 that are in the U.S., 3 are Spanish names, 2 are French and 1 is Italian.

I can think of nary another south of the U.S. that hasn't been included.

the capital of Argentina's most populated Province is "La Plata", Perú's capital is "Lima", the spanish name for "Andes Mountains" is "Los Andes". There, you can have 6 out of 21, rather than 2 out of 21 questions with South America only, and that's just at the top of my head. Also, there are around 50 other countries that I'm sure have other "L" named cities, lakes, and other.
