The river question: Which is the Largest river in Asia? Is it Longest or largest? In terms of water volume when the Ganges and the Bhramaputra meet in Bangladesh that would be the largest volume of water. The Longest rive in Asia would be the Yangtze in China.
She meant Yangtze I believe. You are correct it should be rephrased as longest. And you are on point about Padma in Bangladesh. Basically major section of the Ganges flows out East from my state, West Bengal, and meets Brahmaputra, coming from Assam in the north, in Bangladesh. That river system is called Padma.
@@GODemon13 I am just making fun of the girl. Hitherto, Nietzsche, Tigris. Poor girl. She cannot be accused of being an acute educated person (I'm being light-hearted here, not judgmental). This is the modern world. A lot of internet and smart phones, but not very smart people!!!!!!!!!
It would be helpful and informative if you even slightly elaborated upon the answers. For example, when saying that the longest river in Asia is located in China, you could also add what the name of the river is: the Yangtze. And when saying that the reciprocal of 1/2 is 2, you could easily explain what a reciprocal is: just flipping the fraction upside-down. That would make this a lot more enjoyable to go through. As it is, it's very dry.
Yes, I agree, the reader SHOULD BE MORE EXPERIENCED IN THE MATTER THAT SHE IS READING. 28 out of 30, I think we are more knowledgeable than the reader.
She has only read the words, and has never heard anyone say these words. This is not criticism, just observation. This can happen to any of us. Like, "Marine Corpse."

Your high school education did not help you. At 75 experience has taught you a lot. I am 66. And sometimes I just have to tell these young folks...I thought the same way back in 1974.

First of all, this was a good quiz incorporating a variety of elements. I took this quiz by looking at the screen, had I been listening I fear that my score may have been a little different. Can I respectfully suggest that your pronunciation of certain words contributed to this
Yes, I answered correctly it was first born sons. Women are historically only important for producing the men who had an impact. The same is true today but most people are delusional so they pretend women are just like men.

great fun to do. Wish you could give some answers more details ( like wich country as the longest river in Asia, I know it's China , but wich river ? ) Any way, great fun 23 good answers
I got 21 correct. A suggestion: Right now you are just giving the answer with no other comment. It would be really informative and educational if you mentioned the other options in a sentence or two. For instance, when talking of Horus, you can also mention the head of osiris as well. if you mention kilimanjaro is the tallest mountaiin In Africa, you could alos state what are the tallest mountains in Asia and South america..etc etc. That would really make this channel so much better.
@@wilfriedzaulig9818 Yes. And-they can increase information and make it better should they choose to. Mentioning the other options does not make it something other than a quiz channel--just far more informative and engaging.
Good quiz; only suggestion is to review your pronunciation of names and places before you tape your quiz… Nietzsche and Tigris along with a few others weren’t said properly… Just Sub’d…
A lot can go into what we call "guessing". Sometimes you know something subconsciously because you came across it at some point but are not aware of it and think you guessed. Other times we use logic to deduce. For example "Lena" sounded Russian to me. That's a sign of general knowledge.
Agreed, I was frequently distracted by the poor diction, and pronunciation. But a bit of fun, all the same. We’re obviously all here because we enjoy testing our general knowledge, and that we did, is unarguable. Notwithstanding our desire to waste further time discussing our collective experience. So a win for this UA-camr, I’d say.
The question about the kind of Japanese rice was strange. Takoyaki = fried rice, Gohan = rice or meal, Nigiri = rice ball. So, they are all kinds of rice, and the second answer is not exclusively correct.
The question about Exodus has the wrong answer. Please read the Scriptures, it was all households and animals throughout Egypt, including any Israelite household that did not paint the doorway with lamb's blood.
Tv was invented pretty much at the same time in UK, USA and Germany. Baird is credited in the UK, his system was in any case better than the Farnsworth system. The German system may have been most advanced. Germany had TV broadcasts from the 1936 Olympic games.

Great 😊
Gohan is the Japanese word for rice not a Japanese rice. There are quite a few different kinds of Japanese rice.

Correction: Gohan is the Japanese word for cooked rice. Uncooked rice is kome, and rice still growing in the field (rice plant) is ine.

Much agreed!
The questioner obviously uses those glasses as splashguards and not much else.
she can't even pronounce some of the words correctly.
She has never heard these words spoken. This is common. I once heard a teacher say Herodot
And she uses "what" when the word "which" is called for.
so what?
Ha! I had some lucky guesses including Mickey’s birthday. So I only missed 6. Happy that my brain still works!
The answer to question number 11 is inaccurate. The correct answer is 'The first born SONS of Egypt' and not first born people.
Yes, I answered correctly it was first born sons. Women are historically only important for producing the men who had an impact. The same is true today but most people are delusional so they pretend women are just like men.
I would say that lucky guesses don't count. You have to actually know that your answer is right to get a point. You must be honest. With. Yourself.
