"new dehli" would be a wrong answer, capitalized or not.

The site never accounts for capitalization or spaces, you spelled it wrong.

The Nagpur question was ridiculously difficult. An Indian who didn't get it!

I automatically typed Nagpur as soon as I started, along with Negev, Nagoya, Nanjing, New Delhi and maybe a couple other major N answers for Asia.

Novosibirsk (Новосибирск) means New SiberiaN in Russian. Like New Siberian (City), but without the word City. New Siberia would be Novaya Sibir (Новая Сибирь). I did not find an example on the internet, but you can try it in Google Translate. Just paste there Сибирск (Sibirsk) and you will see that the translation of it is Siberian.

Surprised to see Tamil Nadu in here - "Nadu" is a Tamil common noun meaning - in this context - state, whereas "Tamil" is the proper noun. (Bonus trivia: it's only one word in the local language.)

For a Tamil speaker, finding T.N on this quiz is almost like seeing Canada's Northwest Territories on a 'T' quiz, or perhaps New Zealand's South Island on an 'I' quiz.

I mean, sure. But as a Canadian, the idea of seeing "Northwest ___________" on a "North American Geography by letter T" quiz doesn't feel as if it would be that out of place... 🤷‍♂️

Isn't Nagoya the fourth largest city nowadays? Just saying, since this quiz is now on the front page.
