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.

So it is your fault I have to delete an S after each suit I type. They are called spades, hearts, clubs and diamonds, the S is part of it, nobody ever calls them "spade" etc.

That is not really an element is it. It would be like typhoon or waterfall or rain for water. WInd is moving air (yes undoubtedly there is a much more technical way to define wind, with pressure areas and thermic/thermal whatever things)

Interesting that I never heard of the hammer throw but I got the other 3 right away. I wonder how I missed that, it’s kind of odd.

This might sound ignorant, but I honestly don’t know, do they do the hammer throw in the olympics? If they do it’s even weirder that I never heard of it.

How about you say: Base Elements as opposed to classical elements.

I think 4 base elements: Air, Fire, Water, Earth

4 Classical Elements: Beat, Rhythm, Bach, Beethoven, Hydrogen, Helium, Oxygen, Gold etc..

+2
Level 44
Nov 12, 2020
excuse me what??

their are no such thing as the 4 base elements in the periodic table, and even if they were, no gas would be, the gases in the periodic table were some of the latest discovered elements, lead, gold, iron, and copper would be closer than whatever the heck that is,

also beat, rhythm, bach and beethoven???

beat and rhythm are the same thing in all practical sense, and bach and beethoven were dudes.

Level 59
May 13, 2021
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.

Cruisy 100% for that one. Fortunately there was almost nothing about US sports - that's usually my undoing. Surprised so few got Honshu, it's the second-most populous island in the world. Less surprised about Shikoku. And apparently not many people had a 'special interest' in astronomy as kids.
