Okinawa is an important island, but in comparison to Honshu, Hokkaido, Shikoku and Kyushu, it much less important. It is historically relevant, but not considered “main”. If Okinawa was included despite being much smaller, less populous and generally less relevant than the other islands, there could be cases for some of the Ryukyu Islands to be on this quiz, being less populous and smaller than Okinawa.

Double Bass IS accepted. Our dear frenzil here wants BASE to be accepted, which is very wrong, as it is not a military base, or the opposite of an acid, something used in baseball, or anything that contains "base". (unless of course you are talking about the base of the orchestra, in which the Double Bass and low brass and woodwinds are the base sounds, upon which the other sounds are built off of)

Can we cut some slack, especially for non-native English speakers, please? If you have only ever *heard* the word "bass" in this context, how on earth are you supposed to spell it? It may be wrong to spell it "base" (and hopefully looking at the corrected type-in would inform this), but it is phonetically correct.

No, that is absolutely wrong. That would be like accepting "pore" for "pour" or "bite" for "byte". Totally different meaning. There are a ton of homophones like that in English that have completely different meanings. Why would you want to reinforce a completely wrong spelling of a word in a language you are learning?

I never understand comments like this on a site where one is supposed to be learning about things in the English language. Why would someone WANT quizmasters to accept a totally incorrect spelling instead of learning the correct spelling? Bass vs. base is something every native English speaker knows (or should know anyway). It is an important distinction. Learn. Grow. lol

You are the one that's "kinda stupid" by conflating the term "country" with "sovereign nation". They do not mean the same thing. Not all countries are sovereign nations. Cook Islands, Niue, Greenland, Faroe Islands, Aruba, Curaçao, Sint Maarten and many others are a example of that.

HeyImJonny

Level 33
Aug 26, 2018
This is basically correct. However, Northern Ireland is technically not a country. It's a province. Everyone from Northern Ireland, including myself, would argue that we are a country but if we have to be technical about it then we are wrong...

Wales used to be considered a principality until December 2011 when the ISO updated itself and recognised it. But it hadn't been treated as a principality for centuries.

AlexThirkell
+1
Level 72
Feb 11, 2021
Northern Ireland has essentially the same status as Scotland and Wales in the UK, so if you call them countries then you can go ahead and call NI a country.

"Province" isn't used in any official way at all, it only comes about because:

1. There is no Northern Irish ethnic group or language, unlike Scotland and Wales;

2. Northern Ireland has never been an independent country in the past, unlike Scotland and Wales.

Some people think NI falls even shorter than Scotland and Wales in terms of being a country, so they use a lesser title for it - usually province. It's not officially or technically a province though, it's up to you and your politics/biases/judgement/instinct/whatever.

they are sovereign nations! NOT countries in their own rights, though we do often call ourselves individual countries, we are not.

Also, Ireland IS NOT northern Ireland. they are a part of the EU, use the Euro and not the Pound / Sterling and are the republic of Ireland, not Northern. hope that helps clear it up!!

Doesn't matter whether it's the most likely guess, it should be accepted, because it's correct (and technically more correct than the displayed answer).

Similarly, "The Championships" (the actual name of the UK's tennis grand slam event) should be accepted as well as Wimbledon, the place that The Championships are played.

The quiz accepts both Roland Garros and French Open.

A contrabass in a musical definition, is just any instrument that can play a full octave lower than the bass range of pitch. It isn't exclusive to only woodwinds. In fact when you search up contrabass, a double bass or a similar instrument pops up. Performers also just call the instrument contrabass sometimes.

I enjoyed this quiz a lot. Surprised at how low the four Japanese islands have scored compared to some of the categories here! But a nice quiz to do on a Sunday evening. Thanks.
