A friend just posted a link to this on Facebook

Great Language Game

It is quite possibly the most fun I have had in years. I can now identify South Efate as well as any Vanuatan Grin

Managed 1300 on my third attempt- post your scores!

Fun! Got 400 on my first attempt

How can you get 1300 in one go? My other attempts scored 350 ish, but there don't seem to be enough questions to score over 1000

Such a lovely game!

Gutted to have ended it by being unable to distinguish between Ukrainian and Serbian. Was shocked to have understood the clip, though- just from intermediate Russian. Several languages for the price of one. :)
