Languages & Linguistics quizzes
World languages, etymology, alphabets
The Languages & Linguistics theme explores the diversity of the world's languages and the science that studies them: language families such as Indo-European, Sino-Tibetan or Afro-Asiatic, the evolution of Latin into French, Italian and Spanish, word origins, grammar and phonetics. It also covers writing systems, from the Latin, Greek and Cyrillic alphabets to Arabic script, Chinese characters and Egyptian hieroglyphs.
You can find out where everyday words come from, what separates a language from a dialect, or why Esperanto was invented. All Languages & Linguistics quizzes are free, with five levels running from very easy to expert and an explanation following every answer.
