w00t! 8/10!

I think that the script they’re all reading is something about Minnesota State University…

I loved this quiz! Only 50% but you should definitely do a second version. I got a bit mixed up with the Namaste (same in Hindi and Nepali) and Merhaba (had a friend in Turkey and another who spoke Arabic. I got the friends mixed up!).

They appear to be saying “Hello” then something generic. If you know greetings in multiple languages then you can get some of these right off the bat. Thank you to the Animaniacs for the “hello” song.

Hey, 6/10 isn’t that bad, right? It sounds like they’re reading a script – out of curiosity, what are they saying?
