Though I went with Raaz but Gupt also fits

Same. It also tried to trick me into believing that it's 'Kyun hogaya na' instead of 'maine pyaar kyun kiya'. I happened to remember a song from that movie and it helped. Warna ek aur negative marking

15) Pik Mistar Marrum Littil Mistar

Ok I didn't get this question but being a Tamilian this is confusing cause Bade and Chote in Tamil translates to Periya and Chinna and for "aur" the spelling is Matrum or you could ad "um" to the words Mistar

Marrum / Maarum means change / will change / will become

Mujhe "Kesek Dit" ka translation "someone saw" de raha tha, ab mujhe koi samjhaao "Kisine dekha" aur "Koi mil gaya" mein kuch tuk taal hai?😭😭

Ek aur koi toh site tha, usmein toh yeh line ko Kurdish nahi Hungarian bol diya😭😭

Achha hua iska answer nahi diya, negative marking se toh bachh gayi

Ha ha I had same kesek dit

Initially I thought these 4 questions we had to unscramble and get right word and I was trying that only 🤦

Later re read the question to see if any hidden clue was there.

Yes. I agree. Luckily I didn’t get this one coz it’s definitely not Tamil.

Shreya this question was not in my set but one more answer is there too

Name a language that is written from right to left.

Besides Arabic Urdu Persian and Hebrew

Sindhi language is also written right to left

Just telling if u got Sindhi answer from someone that would be correct too

Hopefully you had fun with those trivia questions. Here's sharing the full list of the questions and answers I had sent out. Each person got 4 questions from each topic.

Note that I accepted answers as long as you were close to the exact answer or the number. For example, for "How many Indigenous languages are there in Europe", I accepted most answers around the 200 to 250 mark. Or for a question like translating "tussi angreji bolde ho", I accepted answers that were given as questions, comments, or simplified versions of the translation.

For the movies category, if you got the movie name right but the language wrong I still accepted the answer though technically it should have been wrong.
