General Knowledge Quiz #13

Name that Greek Letter

What an epic quiz! Also accept spellings chetiri/chyetiri (4 in Russian) and dvye (alternate spelling of 2 in Russian)?

Level 56

Jun 18, 2015

Thanks! I've accepted dvye. Chetiri/chyetiri aren't correct, I'm afraid. In Russian it's spelled четыре, where ы is transliterated as y (the Latin alphabet doesn't have a better match) and е as e/ye. Y (ы) sounds like i to an untrained ear, but can be distinguished by a fluent speaker. Unstressed e and i sound alike in Russian, but one needs to remember the spelling.

P.S. I know this because I have heard a lot of Russian, I live in a town where 20% speak Russian natively. Wikipedia confirms all this as well.

Level 73

Aug 17, 2017

I agree with Jerry. The frustrating part was the "CH" sound which this quiz doesn't accept.

Level 44

Aug 29, 2023

Great!

Level 75

Jun 17, 2015

In Swedish there is a mistake: 4 is "fyra", not fyre.

Level 56

Jun 18, 2015

It must've been a typo. In a quiz with 330 answers, I didn't expect to type everything right. Fixed.

Level 72

Oct 31, 2015

Four in Slovak = štyri, not štryi ;)

Puzzled me that 3% found it despite the typo anyway

Level 56

Nov 1, 2015

That would be a typo on my side. Fixed.

Level 40

Mar 3, 2016

Does this quiz use Nynorsk or Bokmal? (Two different dialects of Norwegian, Bokmal has more speakers)

Level 56

Mar 4, 2016

It uses both. The only difference between Bokmål and Nynorsk in the numbers 1 to 10 is the word for 1. Bokmål uses "ett" and Nynorsk uses "eitt". To be neutral, I accept both.

Level 37

Jan 2, 2019

you can use also use 'syv' in norwegian, but only in bokmål

Level 59

May 14, 2024

Norwegian should accept "en" too

Level 65

Jan 10, 2023

They are two different orthographies, right?

Level 62

Jul 6, 2016

What an awesome quiz! :) I consider myself to be fairly knowledgeable about European languages, and still I could finish only 15 languages fully (it finally paid off to have studied Slavic languages!). I didn't know any in Maltese, Romanian, Greek, Albanian, Irish, Turkish or Tatar, but I got a few in most of those columns by guessing. That doesn't really count as knowing, though. Tänan!

Level 60

Aug 29, 2023

I just did a lot of guessing. Kudos!

Level 54

Aug 6, 2016

The Hungarian nine is kilenc and not kilents.

Level 76

Dec 10, 2016

When counting in Greek we usually say "ena" (neuter form) and not "enas" (masculine form). Epta should also be an acceptable answer for the Greek seven.

Level 56

Dec 11, 2016

Fixed "kilenc". "ena" and "epta" are now accepted. Thanks!

Level 44

Apr 30, 2017

Wow! Great quiz! This must have taken hours to make!

Level 42

Jul 4, 2017

I aced Danish, German and English and most of Norwegian and Swedish. Other than that, I just typed numbers that I know I had heard from somewhere.

Level 66

Nov 1, 2017

You should have added Latin! My favorite language! It's technically European... A very impressive quiz!

Level 56

Nov 2, 2017

I picked the languages based on the number of native speakers in Europe, so Latin didn't qualify. Admittedly, Latin has been an important language in European history but I wouldn't want to change the quiz any more.

Level 29

Dec 28, 2017

I hoped to see Basque in here... good quiz anyway!

Level 65

Nov 8, 2018

In Swedish, one is 'ett' ;-)

Level 71

Jan 16, 2019

Awesome quiz I got 122 which is 37% which beats 77%. But I must admit I got a lot by guessing. For instance if I knew dvo and dvi excisted, id try the other vowels aswell. Plus sometimes a word showed up which I had typed differently then I typed it as it was shown and sometimes two were shown and I typed the other one. It might not really be Knowing the words, but still it is a puzzle to solve and I thought that was rather inventive ;) worked a lot of times.

It would be nice if as on your colour quiz, when the results show up the ones you didnt get are filled in with read on the grid. On the other hand, this layout felt better, turkish and tartan next to the germanic languages looked very weird.

not that maltese belongs with germanic but it looks a lot better :) I think I would (ve) do(ne) it as follows: germanic, romance, then either uralic and greek/albanian/irish+maltese, or slavic+turkish/tatar.

basicly paring redwith brown and grey with purple and darkblue.

Level 71

Jan 16, 2019

btw beforehand I never realised estonian was so similar to finnish and hungarian. I knew finnish and hungarian were closely related, an interesting fact that most people dont seem to know (outside quizsites... I havent met anyone in real life that knew how close hungarian and finnish were. In fact I think most people even think finnish is similar to swedish etc) I knew there were other uralic languages, but never thought much about what and where they were. Basicly usually only had finnish and hungarian in mind.

It is nice to learn new stuff :)

AWESOME! - Did poorly but this was an excellent idea for a quiz.

Level 59

Aug 2, 2019

I was able to guess most of the Greek ones thanks to my knowledge of polygons' names.

Level 46

May 24, 2020

I didn't do that well, but this is an AWESOME quiz! Nomination heading your way!

Level 51

Aug 27, 2020

Ein, not Eins.

Level 56

Nov 8, 2021

While correct in a (masculine) sentence ("one table" is "ein Tisch"),

it is wrong for the number (and a feminine sentence) ("one, two, three,.." is "eins, zwei, drei,.. and "one wall" is "eine Wand").

Level 74

Jun 18, 2021

This was always one of my favorite quizzes to do in my free time or when I was procrastinating homework, looking forward to seeing it on the front page!

Level 72

Jun 24, 2021

Please also accept et in Danish as 1 can both be en and et.. 1 house would be et hus.

Level 53

Jul 8, 2021

How could I forget about English

Level 56

Nov 8, 2021

Could you also accept the un-romanized spellings for Cyrillic and Greek?

Level 65

Mar 29, 2022

I knew Maltese and Arabic are related, but I couldn't figure how they spell the numbers

Level 69

Mar 29, 2022

Awesome quiz! Got 46%. Not bad!

Level 59

Norwegian for 1 is en like in the other North Germanic languages
