after typing spain and mexico i just stared at the screen for a minute... averything I could come up with i followed with an immediate nope. And somehow thought the rest of south america spoke portuguese like brasil, not spanish. Once I was on that road things went fast. Only missed dominican republic costa rica and honduras. (might ve gotten those if there was a map)
Isn't it English in Belize? People do learn Spanish because they're surrounded by Spanish speaking countries, but otherwise it's English. Also for Andorra it's Catalan, not Spanish, though many do speak Spanish and/or French as well.
I wonder if these people haven't bothered to give the comments even the most cursory of scans before leaving their own comment, or if they do and just don't care.
For my second try, I went through my guesses in a more organized way. Trying to follow the map in my mind instead of scattered around. It worked, and I got dominican republic! And it was an alphabet guess on equatorial Guinea, hadn't known.
Yes, thank you, I just checked them out. But still, I don't think anyone before me has pointed out that Andorra's official language is Catalan, and Belize speaks English. Seems like that should have been among the very first comments, right?
I wonder how many people in the Vatican are fluent in Spanish.
And is it just me or is it surprising that so few people speak Spanish in Trinidad and Tobago? It’s so incredibly close to Venezuela yet I believe less than 5% of citizens can speak it
I managed to beat the quiz in 1:33, I was afraid I'd have to go into the Lesser Antilles and I managed to get Equatorial Guinea by a sort of lucky guess, as I remembered Spain had African colonies.
im guessing you mean quite, and Haiti was a french colony for a while and has never really had spanish language spoken widely at all, they speak french and haitian creole
I think this comment thread is justification for a rule that bans people from making comments in future if they make the same comment that has been made and responded to over and over and over and over again. It's funny after the first couple of times but seriously?!
I really enjoyed this quiz. Although I had literally just taken the top ten Spanish speaking countries before it. And still nearly forgot Mexico... really like these country slash language hybrid quizzes. Thank you.
I'm mad about Andorra and Belize. Andorra is Catalan speaking, most inhabitants speak Catalan since it's the official language. I never think of it as Spanish speaking. The same for Belize, it's an English speaking country, I've seen the justifications for adding it here but it just doesn't go. Please, consider removing them.
Are you going to deport a bunch of Spanish speakers from Andorra and Belize? Anyways, even without Catalan, Andorra does speak mostly Spanish, same thing with Belize. There is literally 0 justification on a quiz where it is not by official language, yet the percentage of how many people speak it in said country, of which Andorra and Belize, despite having more speakers of Catalan and English respectively, have most of their population speak Spanish.
I know USA majority speaks English, but I imagine Spanish is sneaking up as a major language. I dont know the stats right off hand, but I bet 15% of America speaks Spanish.. Just a guess though.
I don't normally get annoyed by a bunch of comments by commenters who didn't read previous comments; in this case, there were enough that as I was reading, I went from neutrality, to irritation, to mild amusement, back to irritation. The only cure is more dipwads commenting that the official language of Andorra is Catalan; Belize, English, and maybe a few assertions of the sovereignty of Puerto Rico and French Guiana while we're at it. I can get back to mild amusement if we try!
surely they are countries that speak Spanish ...
