	If you think it should not be required to answer in order let me know, but if that is the case I will have to change the time down to about 6 mins.

	Exactly.... trying to guess these in order is a bit annoying, but would make for a great quiz if the time were much shorter.

	I'm fine with guessing in order, but I still think you can bring down the time limit.

	Guessing in order for this type of quiz gets frustrating

	Shortened to 6 mins and it is free response.

	i feel like "Farsi" should be accepted for "Persian"

	newenglander:	Nov 6th, 2009 at 23:01 GMT	4 points
	farsi really needs to be acceptable for persian

	I assume this includes second languages?

	I was surprised by Navajo not being on here, but it falls just a little short: 178,000. Here's hoping it only gains in the future.

	wow... armenian that's not expected. And Tagalog made me so mad cuz all i could come up with was philpino. Actually happy Navajo cuz I would felt stupid missing a original American language when i was desperate naming African languages

	this is good but you can probably find a more credible source than wikipedia

	Classic sporcle-syndrome for me here - remember all the more obscure ones, forget the obvious. This time I forgot Polish!

	@millawing-im assuming this list is about first languages/languages spoken at home

	Sohail:	Jun 4th, 2011 at 01:11 GMT	1 point
	HA HA @ ConorONeill trying to make fun of American's while butchering that sentence. Also, considering I drive through Glendale, CA everyday, I am disgusted I missed 'Armenian.' "Hey Bro! I give you sweet deal on phone and throw in free System of a Down t-shirt Bro!" That is actually an old Armenian proverb. Nice quiz!

	cheesepoof:	Jun 4th, 2011 at 03:36 GMT	1 point
	good quiz! only thing i would recomend is that you include american sign language (technically the 3rd most used language in the u.s.)

	Sohail:	Jun 7th, 2011 at 00:39 GMT	1 point
	@mllawing...That is a good question. I just looked around a bit and the source for this quiz says it only applies to the population over the age of 5. So that explains about 20 million unaccounted for people, not sure about the rest.

	I can't believe how fast Asian languages are growing in the United States, it's sad to see traditions change.

	Surprised Hebrew wasn't on the list. I figured that since there were quite a few Jews, it would be spoken by lots of people. Guess that's just me being ignorant! D: Also, I assume Spanish includes Latin American and European Spanish, and, likewise, French includes European and Canadian French?
