I like separating them into continents like this. This would be a good update for the ones already done.

I found this SO HARD even though I am usually good at country quizzes. Why? Australian. Rarely pronounce Rs on the end of words, so everything and nothing sounds like it ends in one.

Brit here. Had the same problem...

Are you sure? This quiz would be a lot longer if it were written in British English. Chiner... Russier... etc. Maybe you don't hear yourself pronouncing the R. I know there are different accents..

New Englandah. We don't have "R"s at the end of words, but 7/7

Level 51

I'm a Brit and I don't have that problem...I think it's an accent thing, I'm guessing Tramp may be from the north of England? Also, British English, American English doesn't matter, pretty much all countries are spelt the same way

Level 74

Feb 26, 2018

I thought all those countries in the quiz and mentioned above end in an 'L'

Level 77

@kalbahamut - we definitely don't put an R sound on the end of words like China/Russia. The only time I'd ever do that is if I was trying to do an admittedly extremely bad American accent.

@Tramp you're not doing an American accent if you have an "r" sound at the end of any country that doesn't end in r

You guys do that but only when you're about to say a word that starts with a vowel. For example, "Americar is" is a thing I hear a lot when listening to British people talk.

Lemondance is right - we use the "Intrusive R" a lot in the UK, or at least in England. But since it only appears when followed by a word beginning with a vowel, and acts to connect the two words in speaking rather than attaching specifically to the first word, it's quite wrong to say this list would be 'longer in British English'.

since when do people say russia like russier in the UK 😂

russia doesn't rhyme with fussier

Level 39

that rhyme doesn't make any sense but the intrusive R thing is definitely real

Not enough time - going through the whole world in my mind takes much more than 2 minutes.

Same here. New Zealanders like myself pronounce almost anything that ending with 'er' as 'a'.😂

the words are still spelt with an R at the end though, surely?

I only forgot East Timor the first time, got them all the second.

For Spanish speakers, this quiz is very easy because we pronounce the R very clearly!!! EcuadoRRRRRrr

Haha, that's how I got the ones in the Americas. Just started thinking of my Hispanic friends talking and I heard "Ecuadorrrrrrrrr."

Myanmar stumped me. I just always viewed it as Burma.

Well, the Myanmese don't, not since at least 1989.

Must have been earlier. When I was in the first grade, which was in 2000, I got a book with all the countries of the world, and even back then, there was "Myanmar (formerly Burma)".

Need to give more time. I did not get a single one and I got 100% on the countries of the world quiz.

Feb 26, 2018

Oh come on, Timor Leste is in every other quiz, not East Timor :/

Level 59

Aug 11, 2020

Maybe in a comment section of every other quiz, but I don't think I had seen a quiz where the answer wasn't "East Timor."

Level 50

May 19, 2023

In which quiz? I have not yet come across such a quiz, and I have already dozens which feature East Timor. The quizes are in English, so it should be called by its English name, not French or some similarly obscure language that basically nobody speaks.

Level 72

Sep 13, 2023

The official short form of the name is "Timor-Leste".

Level 67

Apr 18, 2024

"obscure language that basically nobody speaks" wdym??? also, plenty of names for places are in other languages in English and are left untranslated, Timor-Leste included

Level 63

Feb 26, 2018

East Timor?!?!?!

Timor Leste!!!!

Level 72

Dec 26, 2020

Wrong -- it's Timor-Leste. Of course, in Jetpunk world, the hyphen doesn't count.

Feb 26, 2018

It took me all but 30 seconds of the quiz to remember Madagascar. Then I had a brain fart and it took me 25 more seconds to remember how to spell it.
