Why doesn't "Montenegrin" work with Montenegro even if it's in brackets in the table? Also I kept thinking about Quechua and Aymara: "Now how are they spelled in English?" because I know in my native language they're written "Ketšua" and "Aimara".

Language is not always about being really different from another language linguistically speaking. It's also a political thing. If you want to profile yourself as your own nation, you'll call your dialect a language and everybody else goes with that. Just look at Sweden/Norway/Denmark. Nobody contests that, but essentially Swedes often have an easier time understanding Danish than for example Finns from different parts of Finland have understanding each other. At least if they speak the old dialects. There's no clearcut differentiation between dialect and language, it's what we are taught and used to thinking that matters really. That and the borders of countries.

These are languages diverging for political reasons. Just try walking around Croatian with a "Serbo-Croatian" dictionary/phrase guide. Most language courses and books are now breaking them up.

It's a technicality, english is not the official language so not to pick favourites but then you are picking a De Facto favourite. Bolivia, South Africa and many others are doing exactly the same thing with the opposite approach, all their languages are official not to leave anyone out but spanish is de facto in Bolivia and specific provinces in South Africa have one language above all else, in any case Canada would be a good example English and French are official and every person in the country speaks one or the other or both and then all official communication is done in both.

kalbahamut

Level 79

Jan 8, 2015

Not everyone in Canada speaks French or English. And there are probably people in South Africa and Bolivia who do not speak any of the recognized official languages there, as well. Giving a language "official" status doesn't really accomplish anything, but it does give more weight to the protests of ornery racist nativists who love to say things like "learn the language or get out of the country!!" When the United States was formed there were many people living within its borders whose native language was German or Dutch or something else. There was no point in marginalizing those people by declaring that English was the most prestigious language and ethnicity of the country, just like there's no reason to publicly and officially marginalize speakers of Spanish, Chinese or Arabic today.

I live in Canada and know people who speak neither English nor French. Also I think we need to make Aboriginal languages official, (such as Cree and Ojibway), in my opinion. Or at least Inuktitut as that is what majority of Nunavummiut (people from Nunavut) speaks.

Bad baby: why would you assume that? English is my native language and I'm quite proficient at using it.

Also my family has roots in the United States going back 15,000+ years, to Cherokee who originally settled the land, to English and German farmers who colonized Virginia in the 16th century, and to the Pilgrims who landed at Plymouth. Anyone glancing at me would assume I was "white."

Really? "Those Brits are ignorant and suffering from an inferiority complex." Sounds pretty rude to me, regardless of which has changed more, which as Brandy pointed out is difficult to tell for sure. And true, you didn't say all cultures should be equal, but this is implied, for language at least, when you say that there was no point marginalising people who spoke a minority language. Besides, I'm sure you probably agree that all cultures should be equal, as most reasonable people do, regardless of whether or not you have actually typed that in a comment.

kalbahamut

Jul 10, 2019

Really. If they knew what they were talking about they wouldn't say it and wouldn't be ignorant. If they weren't insecure then they wouldn't so eagerly grasp at this fallacious idea that Americans don't speak proper English, as a way of making themselves feel better. There's no other explanation. I didn't say British culture was inferior. But those in the UK or Europe who come here or elsewhere and routinely spit out hateful remarks directed at Americans (with no basis in fact) are obviously suffering from some such complex. It's textbook. You are reading in to my comment an implication that said complex is warranted, presumably because Americans are culturally superior, which is not something I believe.

Modern Icelandic is closer to what English was over 1000 years ago than modern English (either British or American) is. We still call the language that has developed since then in England "English". This is the strongest argument I see for American English not being called "English", but it is still pretty weak because US and UK English are orders of magnitude closer than either is to Icelandic. They aren't different languages, though I think it is fair to call them different dialects of the same language. And no doubt inferiority complexes play a role too.

Both Scottish and Irish are Gaelic languages (along with Manx). It wouldn't be proper to refer to either language as Gaelic.

Zefyrinus

Jan 8, 2013

Irish Gaelic is spoken in Ireland and Scottish Gaelic in Scotland. Originally I had defined it as Irish Gaelic, but the Quizmaster changed it to just Irish when this became a frontpage quiz.

I think that change doesn't matter much because if you try to type "Irish Gaelic", it will become accepted as soon as you've finished typing "Irish".

I don't think just "Gaelic" is accepted. I believe it is often referred to as just Gaelic, but then it becomes indistinguishable from Scottish Gaelic. So idk if it ought to be accepted or not. :/

Gaelic is accepted if you type it, but almost no one is Ireland uses that world to refer to the language. We refer to our own language as either Irish or Gaeilge (it depends on where you are), and we call Scots Gaelic, that, Scots Gaelic. And to clarify, Scots is it's own language, based more in old English and German.

Jan 8, 2013

A language doesn't stop existing just because some government says so. Serbian, Bosnian, Croatian and Montenegrin are considered to be dialects of the same language by some, while others claim that they are different languages. Since there is no scientific definition of what the difference is between a language and a dialect, both claims are equally valid. The quiz has catered for that by letting you type either each language variety separately, or just typing a term that encompasses all of them.

kalbahamut

Level 79

Jan 26, 2013

serbian works as an answer for most but if you type in Serbian alone you won't get Montenegrin.

dwo

Level 87

Jan 14, 2013

There are languages that are different because they are different. Then, there are languages that are different for political reasons. Serbocroatian is one of those. Before Yugoslavia broke up, these languages were considered to be one language. It was only after Yugoslavia broke up that they were considered separate languages. That is a fallacy to assume that they are separate languages because of politics. However, Serbian is typically written in Cyrillic where Croatian is written in Latin, yet Hindi and Urdu are considered separate languages: spoken, they are the same language (with dialectal differences), but Urdu is written in Arabic and Hindi is written in Devanagari. Using that logic, it's not a fallacy to assume that Serbian and Croatian are separate languages.

kalbahamut

Level 79

Jan 26, 2013

agree with dwo. Student of linguistics here. These languages were invented only to try and create an artificial difference between people who were at war with one another. Realistically, they are the same language. It would be like if the United States had a 2nd civil war, and those in the south declared that they spoke Confederalese and then decreed that all Southern dictionaries excise words like "pop" in favor of "soda," etc... a ridiculous and cynical exercise in the politics of war, not a natural evolution that would produce a truly distinct language.

Bobcat108

In the US South, neither "pop" nor "soda" are used...it's all Coke. Or more specifically, Co-cola. Soda is the East & West Coasts, w/an outpost in Milwaukee. Pop is the Midwest, although the dividing line between soda & pop runs north & south from Rochester, NY, through State College, PA, & south, roughly along the Appalachians.

kalbahamut, I see your politico-linguistic point, but as a student of Croatian, I can assure you that the differences between Serbian and Croatian are much bigger than the difference between Northern and Southern English in the US. Aside from the whole issue of using different writing systems, there is a growing difference in vocabulary. I'm guessing time will increase that; mostly because the Croats want it to.

kalbahamut

Level 79

Feb 4, 2017

sam.. that's kind of my point though (because the Croats want it to). The differences are artificial and engineered. It's a false evolution of two dialects of the same language. My analogy to Northern/Southern American English was a hypothetical situation in which something similar *could* happen... not something that *has* happened.

Sorry, Bobcat, but soda is definitely used in this part of the Upper South and in the Mid-South where we lived for a while. My college roommates from Michigan and Chicago thought I wanted an ice cream soda when I suggested we get a soda. They were calling it Coke back in the 1970s, but I have cousins in Michigan who still call it pop. I am noticing that the younger generations seem to prefer Coke as the generic word now, regardless of region. My late father-in-law, who grew up in the Ozarks, called it Co-cola.

I forgot to add that when I was a girl in southern Missouri in the 1950s and '60s, everyone called it "sodie" as in, "Let's go to the store and get us a sodie." But when talking about a specific brand, cola was usually attached - Pepsi-Cola, Coca-Cola, RC Cola, Lotta Cola, etc.

Djilas

Level 76

Feb 4, 2017

kalbahamut, it's a bit more complicated than that. While today's differences are in big part due to conscious political efforts, Serbian and Croatian are not a result of the recent wars. They are two distinct language standards that existed long before Yugoslavia (ok not that long, modern standardization dates to 19th century, but anyway...) Serbo-Croatian is still one language of course.

I repeat that Romansh it is NOT an official language of Switzerland at national level. The fact that they allow Romansh people communicating to federal units in Romansh does not make it an official language. Only German, French and Italian are fully official and equivalent at national level, and every law must be translated into the three. I repeat that Romansh has the same relevance as REGIONAL LANGUAGES do in other countries. Here a link from the Swiss parliament that unfortunately is not available in English: http://www.admin.ch/opc/fr/classified-compilation/20062545/index.html And I repeat that also many Swiss people make confusion on this topic and I get often contradicted.

Info about East Timor is not accurate. The official languages of the country do include Tetum, but not English, although it is widely spoken, due to the proximity to Australia.

As the years progress, that is less and less true. Australia is a country based on immigration, so the population of immigrants continues to rise, but there are many of these who chose to live among the enclaves of their own ex-pats, and many (particularly when they bring their elderly parents, etc) do not end up learning English. In fact, there are many areas (esp in Sydney and Melbourne) where you'll often see shops signs, etc, in only Mandarin or Vietnamese... But, no - no language has ever been written in to the Constitution. At the time, it was just assumed, since we based it on Westminster law. It's not expressly forbidden, like the creation of an official religion, but there just doesn't seem to be a need.

Well, for the US it's undisputable that English is the de facto "official" language, but when it comes to other countries it might be debatable what languages I should list for them if I opened up for this.

Belarusian with two S was supposed to be accepted, but it wasn't due to a mistake in the type-ins. I've fixed this now. But are you sure about Hiri Motu? There is a language called just Motu, on which Hiri Motu, the pidgin/creole language, is based on. The only thing I can find about "Motuan" is that it's the name of the people who speak Motu.

Not that it matters, but correct me if I'm wrong, in New Zealand, isn't English not considered an official language. When I went there a few months ago, I was told that there are only 2 official languages (Māori and NZ Sign Language), and that English, despite being the most widely spoken language, isn't formally designated as an official language. So if you're including English for New Zealand, you might as well include English for Australia, UK, US, Spanish for Mexico, etc. for the sake of consistency or otherwise remove English as an official language of NZ. Plus, should English be removed as an official language, it would probably confuse many people, and waste their time trying to figure out how to type 'English', which is always entertaining. +1 for accepting Seychellois

The United States has no "official language". Many individual states do but there is no official national language. https://www.worldatlas.com/articles/what-is-the-official-language-of-the-united-states.html

Why can't just creole work? Took me a while to figure I had to add prefixes, can we just allow it to fill in the most popular version of creole and then have to name the rest?
