Type 'easy' or 'hard' to begin the quiz. Easy is a 2-degree grid, hard is a 1-degree grid. Then, try to name the largest UK 1K+ cities in each square IN ORDER. To name a city, you must first click on the grid square to make it have a GREEN border. Then, type in the city answer for that square followed by a '.' (a period).
The squares will start with '0/5' (or maybe fewer cities if less exist in that square). Click on a square and enter the largest city in that square not yet answered (so, the largest city if you have yet to answer a city in that square). You will then have '1/5' and need to click on that square to name the 2nd largest city, and so on until you complete all the cities up to 5 (or less if less exist). If you name an incorrect city in a square it becomes 'locked' and turns red and you can no longer accumulate cities in that square.
You receive 1 point for the largest city in a square, 2 for the 2nd largest, and so on.
At the end of the quiz the largest remaining city you haven't named will be shown in each square.
surprised to see iasi on here
In their native language both Cologne and Vienna would count since their names in German are Köln and Wien, both one syllable.
Yes but I’m using English versions of names for this quiz.
What about Kielce and Trier?
Gdańsk is listed as two syllables on the Wiki page, with the audio sample in the Name section instead of in the opening paragraph.
Will add those two. I have Gdansk as one syllable in my other quizzes and native Polish speakers (I speak some myself) do pronounce it as one syllable.
I thought Lyon had two syllables.
In the French pronunciation the two parts are diphthongs, I am counting those as one syllable.
Player from Lyon here : definitely one syllable in French pronouncing.
