I feel like the ones with the flags are a bit too easy cause you can immediately tell. But otherwise, it was okay!

That's not a good quality test because. it shows the flags of the languages in pictures with with the language words. and the flags are very basic like France,Russia,German,Sweden. you could be a polyglot by just knowing the flags in your test. Lol

It is a mistake to include Hindi in the Namaste question. Even though it has its roots in Sanskrit, it is also a common greeting in Hindi.
