Technical details 

Opening screen (first question)The quiz challenges you to match the greetings ("hello") on the right with the correct languages on the left. Wait until the page is fully loaded before starting the game.

This is how to proceed:

  1. Left-click once with your computer mouse on any of the greetings in blue. The greeting will be surrounded by a blue frame. Release the mouse button.

  2. Without clicking, use the mouse to slide the greeting of the language of your choice, shown in red. A green frame appears around the language.

  3. When the green frame appears around the language of your choice, left-click your mouse once again. The greeting ("hello", etc.) sticks to the language.

  4. Repeat the process for the other greetings.

  5. When you have matched as many greetings as you can with the corresponding languages, click "Continue" to know how many correct matches you found.

Please note that in one specific language two different ways to say "hello" are accepted. Either may be used and will be counted as the correct answer; the other (unused) form will be left over at the end of the game.  Four greetings appear twice in an exactly identical form because they are shared by two languages; you can match either one with the corresponding language.
