According to Wikipedia Sheffield is the biggest city in Yorkshire with 513.324 people and Leeds the second biggest city with 440.954 people living there.
British population numbers are weird. Let's not overthink it. Leeds fits. It has five letters. The answer is fine. Remember, the "city" of London only has a population of a few thousand if we're going to be super technical.
100% know "China" in English. Maybe ½% know 中国. Probably a few percent around here know Zhōngguó. China's a subject of general conversation 1,000 times than Wales. I'm sure there's some humor there.
Given that (at a rough guess) one sixth of the World's population are Chinese, it seems highly unlikely that only 0.5% of the World's population know how to spell "China" in Mandarin.
I think he meant half of the percantage, 50%. Either way. He is talking about "around here" and not out there the big scary world that excist outside of the computer screen ;)
All this discussion just shows that British city boundaries are hopelessly convoluted and make little sense. Furthermore, British government agencies often don't have decent public data and sometimes provide contradictory information. There's no hope in making sense of any of it.
That said, Leeds is the only answer that has 5 letters which can be plausibly considered.
I typed chili like 6 times ( maybe more...) I couldnt understand what was wrong and was sure it had to be it. Is(n't) that spelling usually accepted? Otherwise it would ve clicked with me if not the first time, then the 2nd time.
Or something in my mind suddenly broke haha. I have never had any issues with chile on a quize before (and just now I typed chili again, so really feel like it is normally accepted)
Considering in both English and Spanish the name of the country is spelled Chile, I'm not sure chili should be accepted. I've never seen chili used as an variation of Chile. Didn't it occur to you that if typing 'chili' after a few times didn't work, then you should try some other spelling?
Always great when we see this in the comments… someone having a pop at someone about spelling, and they almost always manage to spell something wrong. It’s buteiful…
For the river meeting the sea, I tried "mouth" multiple times without it to work, and not all rivers meet the sea as a delta, the formulation kinda implies that it is always the case
