	Yorùbá: O ṣé = thank you Kò tọ́pé = You're welcome

	Shay:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 09:26 GMT	3 points
	Great quiz, although I'd take Hindi out, since the Hindi that you have for 'please' is never used, and the phrase you have for 'you're welcome' literally means 'Welcome' e.g. 'to my house'.

	flixuk:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 11:23 GMT	0 points
	accept 'croat' for 'croatian' please.

	chelseah:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 11:30 GMT	3 points
	hejman-- another great quiz! :)) rock on!

	Hejman:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 12:02 GMT	5 points
	@Shay- Hindi switched out for another language. @flixuk- A very reasonable request. It's been added. @chelseah- Thanks!

	y2jdilemma:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 12:08 GMT	9 points
	Come on, we're all thinking it. Domo arigato, Mr Roboto!

	Love a good language quiz. Is there a reason you don't accept 'Mandarin' for 'Chinese'? Maybe the same characters are used in the Cantonese/Wu/etc. greetings, so it's generalized out?

	midlifecrisis:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 16:43 GMT	2 points
	Chinese and Korean aren't showing up on my screen for some reason. Figures I got Swahili but missed Latin. And I spelled Portuguese wrong. ugh.

	Hejman:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 16:56 GMT	1 point
	Mandarin added. Not sure about the display issues, midlifecrisis. Working fine here.

	MorningBell411:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 21:24 GMT	2 points
	@midlifecrisis: You probably don't have those characters installed in your computer. @Hejman: Great quiz, but I think you have a slight flaw in the Portuguese one -- we say "Não tem de quê" (or "De nada", but you already have it for Spanish), but then again, your version might be a Brazilian thing, I don't know... It's not a big deal, but (Random trivia: "obrigado" literally means "obliged"/"forced") Also, for the French one, "merci beaucoup" is "thanks a lot"; "thank you" is just plain "merci".

	GeorgiaPeach:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 21:40 GMT	1 point
	French can also be said, "Je vous en prie." I'm not sure which is more common.

	Hejman:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 22:12 GMT	1 point
	Thanks, MorningBell411. The source site says the version I used is formal, I'll switch to your (presumably) less formal version. I wavered on the French response and think, Georgia Peach that your suggestion is again formal vs. informal (the source site has your response listed as well). I'll make each of the changes.

	swellwrench:	Nov 8th, 2010 at 23:38 GMT	2 points
	"Croatian" isn't a language. The language is called "Serbo-Croatian," "Croatian" is just a dialect of it. You should accept both (and probably Serbian also, although it's usually written in Cyrillic), but Serbo-Croatian should probably be what's displayed.

	donuthead247:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 00:05 GMT	4 points
	For those of us who can't see chinese characters on our computer, can you please put the pinyin in parentheses?

	Hejman:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 00:23 GMT	3 points
	@swellwrench- I'll make that change- very informative! @donuthead247- I've added the translations for every language that used an alphabet other than the Latin/Roman alphabet.

	Asante sana! Squash banana!

	smreidy113:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 02:34 GMT	6 points
	I'm a little let down with the lack of Kyrgyz, but hey, nobody's perfect. Nice quiz!

	Hejman:	Nov 9th, 2010 at 03:42 GMT	3 points
	Alas, it's not on the source website (or you know I would have done it!).

	adal:	Nov 14th, 2010 at 08:33 GMT	1 point
	You have typo in "Serbo". Dank u for the quiz.

	Roman:	Dec 7th, 2010 at 21:32 GMT	2 points
	Afrikaans dankie also, I object to the Zulu as Ngiyabonga is singular. Siyabonga is plural, please make that distinction

	Hejman:	Dec 12th, 2010 at 02:17 GMT	1 point
	Plural it is- thanks for pointing it out.

	Jelle:	Dec 19th, 2010 at 04:03 GMT	1 point
	I have a Finnish girlfriend and even though my Finnish is terrible, I thought they just said. 'kiitos' for thanks and 'ole hyvä' for you're welcome. What you have seems awfully formal. Fun quiz, though.

	gvigary:	May 17th, 2011 at 20:13 GMT	1 point
	Please accept "Serbo-Croat" as well as Serbo-Croatian, Wikipedia and Free Dictionary list it as equivalent. Great quiz, btw.

	Hejman:	May 19th, 2011 at 04:27 GMT	1 point
	Thanks, gvigary, I'll add that.

	singin185:	May 20th, 2011 at 11:15 GMT	1 point
	I'm usually good at guessing languages with different alphabets based on the characters. That's why I didn't get Vietnamese.

	MrChewypoo:	Sep 19th, 2011 at 17:07 GMT	3 points
	September 21st is World Gratitude Day, and I can't think of a better quiz to celebrate it with! Thanks Hejman!

	Uyamukelwa, MrChewypoo.

	Great quiz. And LTH, I was just thinking that too. :)

	DanK720:	Sep 24th, 2011 at 18:33 GMT	2 points
	Irish: Thank You - Go raibh maith agat, You're Welcome - Fáilte romhat. Great quiz

	misha:	Jan 19th, 2012 at 02:48 GMT	1 point
	Arabic transliteration is correct, but spelled incorrectly in Arabic. It should be: شكرا جزيلا or rather شكرا كثيرا which is much more common.
