Flemish is the language spoken mostly in Belgium.

[@MmmGallicus]

Isn't Flemish a variety of Dutch? And there are other varieties of Dutch spoken in Belgium: Brabantian, Limburgish, for example.

Addendum Q5: To be more precise, the Dutch dialect spoken in Belgium is Flemish. And, obviously, there are many other languages (Walloon, Italian, Spanish, for instance) spoken in the country than the three official languages (official languages being Dutch, French and German). Additional info Q2: Beethoven, Mozart and Freud each lived in Vienna and called it home for many years. The quiz does not say that any of them was born in Vienna :) Additional info Q3: Denmark is connected *by land* to the rest of Europe only through Germany. Denmark is also connected by bridge to Sweden. This does not affect the question and answer :) Erratum Q8: Cemetery*

Belgium only has 3 native languages but 4 official ones (thx to EU)

[@MmmGallicus]

@Quiz Nook. For Q5, it's a bit more complicated than that. I have no special interest in this, but Flemish is not (yet) a language. It is one of the many varieties of Dutch. In Belgium are also spoken Brabantian and Limburgish. However, the Flemish Community and the Flemish Region actively promote Flemish as their official language. Therefore, they say their language is Flemish, not Dutch, and that is probably how most Belgians will answer the quizz. By the way, this is how Luxemburgish was promoted from a German dialect to a full language. It is called an AUSBAU language, and that is probably what is going to happen to Belgian Flemish (please note that some people in France also speak a variety of Flemish). I recommend you change the Q5 question, it being unnecessarily tricky.

[@quiznook]

​@@MmmGallicus Hi Mm, thanks for your comment. It is what I understand as well. Also very interesting to learn that that is how Luxemburgish came to be an official language, thanks for that info. Although I can't remove just one question from the quiz, I'm hoping the addendum will provide sufficient clarification/precision. And I will definitely aim to be as precise as possible as to avoid any potential ambiguity, when creating the questions. Thanks again for taking the time to share your thoughts, appreciated!

I can't spot Denmark on a map, but I know it's in Scandinavia. France and Russia are way too far from there, and Iceland is an island. Germany was the only option left. 4: OK (I'm Spanish). 5: FAIL: I knew that Belgium was inhabitated by French speaking people and Dutch speaking people, but I thought the most spoken language there was French. 6: OK. I knew Brussels was the capital of Belgium, Kiev was the capital of Ukraine and Albania was a former Soviet country, so Monaco was the only option left. 7: OK, but almost pure luck. No clue about Volga or Seine, but I knew the Danube split Budapest, so I chose Rhine for some reason. 8: OK (I'm Spanish - from Barcelona, actually). 9: FAIL. I knew Slovakia was part of the USSR, so it couldn't be Italy, which is in the very South of Europe. Bulgaria is in the South too, but I chose Serbia. I thought the Czech Republic had remained the same since the end of WWII. 10: FAIL. I thought Berlin was closer. I can spot Germany on a map, but not The Netherlands. I knew those countrues were very close, though. 11: FAIL. The whole Brexit thing began to flood the media back in 2015 or so, but I wasn't sure whether the UK had formally left in 2017 or 2020. 12: OK. Ridiculously easy. 13: I have a vague clue of what some languages I don't speak look like grammatically. 'Plitvice' isn't Hungarian nor English at all. Not sure about Russian, so I chose Croatian. 14: OK. I'm Spanish and there are only two countries in the Iberian Peninsula: Spain and 'the other one'. 15: OK, but luck again. The blue banana is an informal way of referring to a region in continental Europe, and it's relatively small. I chose Schengen Area for some reason. Where's my prize?
