12 today
And really - "I might have 'gotten' confused???!" Is an American doing the comments or just someone bad enough at grammar to realise that 'got' would suffice.....
I emailed him and told him the add ons were silly. I got a reply. I think he was a bit miffed, but honestly, he should just stop...
11 for me...
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Olive - 20-02-2023
12 for me. I don't like "gotten" either, but it is actually an old English usage, not specifically American or Canadian. I dislike it almost as much as "anyhoo".

I know - but it really annoys me!

It is not elegant.

Exactly - & neither is the equally annoying 'laying down' instead of 'lying down'.

A dismal 6 today
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Olive - 21-02-2023
Nine for me. Not great.
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Oh_hunnihunni - 21-02-2023
8... as I try to avoid those snotty little add ons.

8 -but really 9 since I got the bear question right.
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Oh_hunnihunni - 22-02-2023
11, pizzly indeed...
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Olive - 22-02-2023
11 for me, and I misread the bear question.

RE: Afternoon Quiz - Olive - 23-02-2023
I am deeply ashamed of getting the Who question wrong. I'm still a huge fan and the song in question should be unforgettable...

13 today. Some of those questions were recycled.
RE: Afternoon Quiz - Oh_hunnihunni - 24-02-2023
He is a bit of a fizzer, this quizzer. 13 for me too.
