You need to accept Tagalog for Tagalog (and Filipino is usually spelled with one L, not two).

nice quiz, although I hoped to find Frisian (small language similar to Dutch and English), which is the language my Canadian family usually speak.

as the link to wikipedia illustrates, Creole is not a language, but rather describes a types of languages derived from existing ones. what specific kind of creole is this referring to? perhaps Haitian Creole?

One could argue that French from Quebec is very different from French from France, or French from Senegal, etc... yet if you ask people from these countries, they would simply say they speak French, with no distinctions.
