...try this.

100% [ecstatic]

I did do a degree in Eng Lang though

Also agree that some of them are wrong in that quiz...

100% - to be fair the Persian one was a guess.

I suspect that will be my greatest achievement in the office this morning .

Had a look at Donk's link and nearly PMSL - the guy has actually called one of his programs Merkin!

No, not really, I just misread it first time. It's Markin.

100%.
Can't wait to test dh tonight.

83% first time
in mitigation, my English degree mostly stopped at 1450

50%

all guesses

no feckin idea whatsoever what it was on about

another 100%

but lots of tutting & huffing

100! (2 lucky guesses though)

100% here, but I took a couple of lucky guesses, so more like 83% certain.
