Ha 68! Truronian > philippe

93 on third go. It's more about fast typing and good spelling.

but you are a native english speaker, I actually have to translate all the countries name's into english, " i had a hard time typing in the english name of the baltic states: just compare
estonia=estland
lithuania= litouwen
latvia= letland
 
Seen this before, none as it wont allow me to enter anything, it's broken. Besides the list of countries it has is a bit strange.

If you just type the entire genuine list of all 193 (192 if you are from the US or 192 UN members) countries in you will not get a full score.

i think it's your dyslexia. :blush:

i knew someone who had dyslexia who had an translation test (about the EU countries, he had a hard struggle with it :/ )
 
92

Nope I think it's my adblocker or other security setting.

Besides spelling I once memorized the names of every country in the world, so I'm sure I would do ok. Most of them I can spell too.
 
Yes, adblockers and being not native speaker sucks. But event though I've named 56 countries, no that bad.

In that case philippe > Truronian. :)

Same problem, and same likelihood of success for the same reason. Just as an aside, what country is missing from the US's list? Taiwan?
 
78

damn, I didn't know there's this many ways to spell countries wrongly in english :sad:
 
Palestine maybe...
How many countries actually officially recognise Palestine anyway? I'm sure many don't. And since we're thinking about it, wouldn't Kosovo be added to America's list? Does that make them equal to 193?
 
nope, according to the list of countries I didn't get Palestine is there, as is Taiwan :hmm:
Try Transnistria and Abkhazian, maybe it's a Russkie running it.
 
106

Then again I'm a fast typer and a native English speaker :p I can't believe I forgot Austria...that last 30 seconds was a waste, I was trying to recall which regions I had skipped and which I had already done.
 
Is South Ossetia an officially recognized country?

Scored 76 by the way. Typing speed is what killed me... (and a slow mind of course)
