Can you name all 196 countries of the world in the nine featured languages: English, Dutch, German, Spanish, French, Italian, Polish, Finnish, and Portuguese?
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.
English is the official language but due to the fact that Belize is so close to so many Spanish speaking countries a lot of people for convenience also learned Spanish or grew up speaking it. and Andorra though natively speaks Catalan it has many Spanish speakers due to it's close ties to the Spanish state of Catalonia leaving many people speaking Spanish. It also seems as if you didn't read the description which stated Fluent speakers not just native ones.
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.
Lol I did the same thing. I was given a project to do a report on any spanish speaking country and my group thought it would be fun to do the one not in Latin America (Besides Spain of course)
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
The US doesn't even have an Official language it was decided that it was unnecessary since everyone spoke English when the constitution was written. And Jamaica doesn't speak Spanish at all. Jamaica speaks English or Jamaican Patois
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!
Bro me spanish teacher says that Belize and obviously Brazil aren't spanish speaking countries and doesn't even mention Andorra so idk why Belize and Andorra are on here. I also forgot Nicaragua @Brazillian.
Belize and Andorra are countries with MASSIVE amounts of Spanish Speakers more than people that speak the official language. Also for the love of all things holy READ THE DESCRIPTION IT LITERALLY SAYS FLUENT NOT OFFICIAL OR NATIVE SPEAKERS.
the Quiz is for FLUENT speakers not Official languages. Belize is surrounded by Spanish Speaking countries and thus most of their people either learned Spanish or grew up speaking it and Puerto Rico ISN'T A COUNTRY.
I lived in Andorra and everyone speaks both spanish and catalan as it's a microstate bordering Spain where a lot of people are not native. A lot of people don't even speak catalan though it's the official language and speak spanish when it's not official
Belize is in North America tf. GUYANA is the only English speaking nation in South America. Belize also is surrounded by countries like Mexico, Guatemala, and Cuba across the Caribbean. All those nations speak Spanish and with SO many Spanish Speaking nations around the people will either learn Spanish or Grow up Speaking it. AND FOR THE LAST TIME IT'S FLUENT NOT OFFICIAL LANGUAGE.
Spanish classes lol.
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
please understand this!!
