I don't believe that Thai has over 1 billion speakers, but still a good quiz

I think there's a zero missing in the third clue of the third language. 60 letters not 6.

I think that the name of the language should not contain more than 6 letters, not the language itself.

Thai Airways is not named after the language. Thai is just an adjective for Thailand. Also, 'airlines' should be singular.

Nice quiz! For some reason, 'E' is an answer for the first question in the green category. In addition, Swazi is an answer for the third question in purple, but not the first two.

It's a category of writing system like alphabet, so it probably shouldn't say "the".

This does appear to be true, it seems to fit all of the categories. Maybe tweak the last clue to say it has to be official in both European and South American countries.

Same for Catalan. I think the last category should’ve read South America AND Europe
