Its wierd the may my brain can't unsee wrong answers - once it allocates Aca to demic and Lat to itude its really difficult to make it blank that out and restart.
I really liked the quiz. There is just one thing that bugs me: The "-opus" vs. "-agon" clue is a bit misleading, as the prefix in that case is octo- or octa- and the rest of the word should be -pus or -gon.
In "The World According to Garp," one of the characters, a child, thinks that the undertow he is told to watch out for when swimming in the ocean is "The Undertoad," a frog of some sort that grabs hold of swimmers and pulls them to their doom. That's one of those images that, once you hear it, is hard to shake.
"liter" doesn't really register and the rhythm of the word would be totally different for "deciliter"
It is an American website, what do you expect? Cut the guy some slack
liter/litre
meter/metre
Still, it is the most guessed...
