Should accept Charlotte, Caroline and Adelaide as 19th century British Queens.

Uh, no, not really. It means the most important 19th century British queen, who actually ruled as queen, as opposed to just being the King's husband. That's Victoria.

King's wife, I think. I'm not sure that type of queen is allowed to be Queen...

As an Australian, I feel obliged to inform you that you have missed an acceptable type-in for the Australian state question. You should accept 'sland'.

If 'sland' works for Queensland; then 'Mc' should work for McQueen. Not that I care that much, but feeling particularly nit-picky today for some reason.

I got to the end of the quiz, knowing nothing about the plant for my only blank, and thought 'they've included every (undisputed) Queen except Anne.' Then I clicked give up. Gah!

Maybe Killer Queen as an answer would have been the only possible one. Probably not Black Queen or White Queen. Those are too obscure.

I typed "Sheeba" and "Shiba," but didn't try "Sheba." Grrrrrrr.

Lots of British queens. Maybe could have changed it up and included Isabella (Spanish queen who sponsored Columbus' voyage) or Catherine (The "great" queen of Russia in the latter 18th century).

Catherine was an empress not a queen. Don't ask me what's the difference between her empire and the one that Victoria ruled, but nonetheless she was never regarded as a queen.

Victoria was empress of India only, and queen elsewhere.

I would suggest not to include names of actual queens at all, since that seems to be a little cheap. There are still enough other... things... with "queen" in their name.

I always thought that the term for the wife of a king who

doesn't rule in her own right, is.. queen

Level 84

In less-formal usage, yes. But if specificity is needed, the terms Queen Consort or Queen Regnant would typically be used.

A couple of these will suddenly be wrong when the queen dies - the national anthem will immediately become God Save the King, and the phrase will immediately become the King's English.

I'm not so sure about the phrase.

It is, admittedly, a custom, and the phrase will take time to change in common usage.

I like how the phrasing of the second question makes it sound as though Queen Elizabeth single-handedly defeated the Spanish Armada, as though she was standing in the middle of the English Channel batting ships away like a courtly Godzilla.

As with the anthem changing, I think the Queen’s English is only a thing when there’s a female monarch, and it’s now the King’s English again.

I thought this might be the case as well, but Wikipedia still has it as Queen's English.

There have been queens outside the UK. Including Elizabeth (twice), Victoria and Mary, while excluding Maria Theresa, Margaret or Isabella, is a little bit too much.
