Do you know your languages?

I found this fun quiz where you have to recognise languages based on how they sound. Try it!

Not too bad considering I'm absolutely appalling at any languages besides Latin...

100%, but it was fairly easy since I had to interact with most of the languages spoken there.

That was very cool. I got 71%, which kind of surprised me since I've only actually heard about half of the options spoken before. I should really try to get out of the Midwest sometime!

Sorry, I should post my score too, forgot to do that in the first post. I got 92%, but: one of the languages is my mother tongue, I have studied 2 others to some extend and 3 more I heard before... so that leaves 9 languages to guess. I could usually base my guesses on words I recognised, accents or sound schemes I associate with certain language families.
