Nice, but there's not really a language called Austrian.

There is a fairly significant difference between German and Austrian German which is what is spoken in Austria: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Austrian_German

but that's called Austrian German, not just Austrian. You wouldn't call Chilean Spanish just Chilean and Mexican Spanish just Mexican, even though both have some differences. From the link you gave: '... is the national standard variety of the German language'. The difference between a language and a dialect/variety are mainly stipulative. Languages are merely dialects with a force/army. They have been standardized by the government and thus got the status of language. Since this quiz is about languages, we should stick to that.

fun quiz, but several mistakes: Kyrgyz is киргизский, Farsi is персидский, Hmong is generally called мяо after its Chinese name Perhaps you should be consistent on capitalization? Normally language names aren't capitalised in Russian.

Decapitalise all of those words. And accept "Persian" as an English translation of фарси. There is no such language as "Austrian". "Thai" in Russian is тайский, not тайландский. RussianPro, nowadays the forms кыргызский, кыргызстан are used too, but may not be as common as the киргиз forms yet.
