Language spans alphabets, pronouns, parts of speech, punctuation, language families and literary genres. Some prompts cover Greek letter names and Roman numeral symbols. Use the English letter name for Greek alphabet questions, and the symbol itself for Roman numerals. A name and a written symbol are different answer formats.

Before you answer
Use the whole condition in the prompt. A familiar correct answer scores safely; a more unusual prepared answer may score higher. New runs use observed frequencies after 100 accepted browser choices for a prompt; below that threshold, tiers remain labelled editorial settings.
After a completed seven-question dive, the review shows all accepted entries for the prompts you played. If a real answer is missing, a mismatch does not prove it is factually wrong: our starter answer lists are limited.
