Thanks to JPin8497 for letting me make a Q version partially based on their X one

I dunno, I think the closest African country to Madagascar is Comoros, although not by much (398km vs 403km). Perhaps you mean the closest "mainland" African country etc. (While Mayotte is even closer to Madagascar than is Anjouan (Comoros), I guess France doesn't qualify as an African country.)

Okay, changed the wording.

Is inequity be a correct answer for the GINI question?

Level 64

Equity is not the same thing as Equality

Equality for GINI measurement please?

It might be that the higher the number the more inequality but surely we can say that equality is being measured. And it still has a Q in it.

It seems like if you measure inequality you are, necessarily, simultaneously measuring equality.

Level 65

Isn't GINI an abbreviation, in which case inequality is the only thing that would work. Otherwise I guess your choice of word depends on if you are a glass is half full or half empty person.

Frustrated with myself for trying equity and inequity but not equality and inequality. I've come to expect too much leniency from Quizmaster

I did tried equality. Didn't work anyway.

I feel like alburquerque is horrible to spell for anyone outside of the USA

Level 63

Aug 4, 2020

its awful for those of us who live there when people keep putting an extra 'r' in it. :)

Level 43

Aug 6, 2020

wait, i swear when i tried putting it in the quiz it wouldnt let me have it because i spelt it albuquerque? and so i "corrected" my spelling for the comment to how the quiz spelt it? Did the quiz originally have it spelt wrong or am i going mad

Albuquerque is spelled correctly on the quiz

Level 82

Aug 4, 2020

It's from Spanish, the fourth most spoken language in the world, and a very phonetically spelled one.

Fun fact I learned today: Typing "ABQ" works for Albuquerque as an auto-typein. Struggle no more.

Level 52

In what way is that "fun"?

Level 65

Mar 26, 2023

Not fun but useful to know to gain some time.

It's a very nice compliment to say that Americans are master spellers, far more skilled at spelling than anyone else. But it's also false - we tend to be pretty bad at it.

Now, about non-Colombians trying to spell Barranquilla...

I didn't get mosque because I was trying to think what the kaaba was called. :(
