Kind of like how "teepee," "pajamas," and "karaoke" aren't REAL English words because they were words in other languages first :-P

How does that make them fake English words? Almost every word in English comes from some other language, either German or French or Latin or Celtic etc. That doesn't mean those words are not real English words or that they don't have English spellings.

I'm gonna have to disagree with ya, jimandnat: 75-80% of English words are "non-native" – i.e. NOT from Old-English or Germanic sources. A good chunk of English words come down from Latin, but usually through French or other Romance languages; the rest of the foreign loaner word are from Greek and a smattering other random languages. It's fair to say that German and OLD English are "sister" languages (at least in the way that you mean it: "derived from a common source"), but not German and MODERN English. Only a quarter-ish of Modern English words come from Old English and Germanic (but not Modern German) sources.

The problem with using vocabulary as a measure of language origin is that an absolute ton of the words you'll find even in standard dictionaries are scientific terminologies that nobody uses in normal conversation, and which primarily come from Latin, Greek or both. Whereas the majority of the words we use on an everyday basis will in fact be from Germanic. So there's a bit of confusion there I think

I found it silly that "chimp" was accepted for "chimpanzee" since the whole point of the quiz is words that have double E in them. Just tickled my funny bone.

Since this was an update, I'm gonna second that the reindeers' names need to be capitalized, and also point out that chimpanzees are not humanity's sole closest living relative anymore. Around 6 years ago or so, it became widely accepted that we are as equally related to bonobos, and then to confuse matters, as of last year, it now looks like we're actually closest to bonobos. Maybe change the hint to "One of humanity's closest living relatives"?

it is 'humorously' requested at concerts all over the world for any band from established act to pub covers band, I think the humour comes from the fact that the song is soooo long

I guess out country must be the only place in the world then where they skip that custom, and all the bands that come here just happen to be bands that dont do that...

Pretty sure you are majorly exaggerating... perhaps it has happened outside of the US on a few occasions, (but I feel like the crowd was probably american, or iniated by the band.. cause honestly I have never heard or seen such a thing in all the countries I have been to, which might not be a much as some, but if it is as big as you claim i would have had to come across it..) But definitely nothing remotely close to the picture you paint.

I imagine this is possible a USA thing? I don't profess to be the biggest rocker, but in the UK I have heard Freebird played live a total of 0 times to my recollection... I was wondering where the double E was in Bohemian Rhapsody!

I've never heard about that and couldn't imagine it either. But I think Aimacs comment makes sense about the humor being in the length of the song (14 mins when Lynyrd Skynyrd play it live). They also seem to ask the audience what song they wanna hear before playing it. Someone even requested it at Nirvanas famous MTV Unplugged concert. They played a short version of Sweet Home Alabama instead. After all you can't expect everyone to know how to sing and play such a lengthy song as Free Bird.

I suggest that the definition of matinee should be broader than just a movie. In Australia the most common usage is for afternoon performances of plays/theatre productions.

Never even heard of freebird and I have been to plenty of rockconcerts. must be a local thing. This is the second time I come across this on a quiz ( I assume it was the same song last time, but well it left no impression, didnt remember it)

Definitely not a local thing. Just because you haven't heard of it, doesn't mean it's not extremely famous.

I think Comet and Vixen should be capitalised as they are proper nouns.
