'Director' used to only refer to men as well, with 'directress' for women. Losing battle of you want to keep actor/actress...

I have never encountered the word "directress" in film or theatre.

It says "used to" - just try putting 'directress' in Google!

I agree, it's pretty clear that 'actress' is increasingly dated.

OK, or you could use your own judgment. From my own limited experience it's clear that actress is already fairly outdated.

If you're happier using actor for men and actress for women that's fine, it's still absolutely common usage, I doubt it's really because you're monitoring the Academy and taking your cue from them though...

+1
Level 67
Mar 26, 2025
Why, though? What control does "the Academy" have on your own language usage? Cause regardless of what they think, "actor" is still used for females just as much if not more than "actress" in the general speech of most people. Either one is valid.

Level 77

Yes, I missed this one because I was listing men rather than women. If it had said actress I would've got it.

Missed all the athletes. As a Brit I don't do any of the quizzes about North American sports. I have a very basic knowledge of them but a heck of a lot less than most of the (North American) takers on here so on those few quizzes that I occasionally take, I invariably get zero points. Thus, I was trying to think of Athletes from global sports rather than American sports.

Must have managed to spell the oldest world leader wrong as well.

I'm not sure being US President is reason enough to be in the category of World Leader. Twentieth century presidents certainly, but until the 20th century the US was not the global power it is now, and the presidents didn't have the clout they have done since the Second World War.

Baseball is popular in the Caribbean countries and Japan/ROK. Basketball is also in many countries like China, Philippines, Lithuania, etc. Maybe not as widespread as other sports, but that "99%" is a gross exaggeration, especially since the U.S. alone is definitely more than 1% of the world, and DEFINITELY more than 1% of this website, which is what this quiz is measuring. But feel free to make some featured quizzes so that your favorite footballer makes this list instead of whining about it in the comment section.
