WhatAboutTheFinish Posted December 1, 2013 Share Posted December 1, 2013 OK, I'm appealing to the VT collective intelligence here. I've got one of those annoying initial based quizes to do but have run into a brick wall even with the use of google! The topic is Christmas Songs and Carols and for those who don't know the format, you are given the intials of the title or first line of a song and you have to say what it is eg: JB would be JIngle Bells, WACIB is When A Child I Born etc I'm 53 out of 60 down but am struggling with; TINR EIERE TBHC IENLDE RCB BCOTA ALY Anybody?

BOF Posted December 2, 2013 Moderator Share Posted December 2, 2013 Name every US state capital with a non-English name What constitutes a non English name? I can't tell if some words are in English or not. Anyhoo, here goes. Cheyenne, Montpelier, Bismarck, Topeka, Sacramento, Santa Fe, Baton Rouge, Tallahassee, Boise, Des Moines, Concord. I'm not sure if names like Denver or Indiana are based on; or derivatives of; native Indian words. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
