Yesterday, he went to his job to build a red car.
Zuótiān tā qù shàngbān qù zào yí liàng hóngsè de qìchē.
I also chose three words to highlight. In retrospect, it would have been nice to highlight a verb so that you can appreciate the sentence structure better (i.e. SVO vs SOV languages).
Also, I had to get rid of the Americas so that the map could fit better (sorry!)
Hope you enjoy, and let me know if you spot any translation errors or if you need more time!
Identify the Highlighted Language on the World Map #2
It's a shame my Hindi example didn't incorperate this!
Outside of a few easier guesses, like French or German, a quiz format like this gets very hard, very fast!
would appreciate one more minute still.
also, the blue colour highlighting the equivalents of 'yesterday' is a bit hard to see in dark mode, although i don't know what you could pick that would be better. the pink and the red are fine
I won't make any more in this series, as it is getting too difficult. I may make more specialised versions by continent however.
I made the baseline map for another quiz which didn't get released, so this was a good way to recycle that.
For example the Korean writing has lots of 'eu's and this reminds me of names like Seoul. I find this helps with unfamiliar languages.
I chose to highlight some of the words, in order to ground people in their detective work.
The words can be moved around in many (perhaps all) of these languages, although some languages are more flexible with this than others.
Very enjoyable :) I do wonder what banaane means though haha, that disctracted me.. Could perhaps use 30 seconds more. (because I recognised them all on sight and didnt have time to sound out even the last last 2 I had left)
I will increase the time, I want to encourage people to take their time and do the guesswork :D
