English has the most words. English is considered a Germanic language but has its roots in Latin. Love your quizzes, they help keep my mind from going dormant.

Russia has 11 timezones. Way more than France since it wasn’t mentioned to include Frances Territories, Only then does it have 12. Great quizzes!

Continental France has one time zone, so I suppose you included the overseas territories. Enlish is a GERMANIC language with a lot of latin words due to the normans invasions, which makes german the main corpus of the english words.

The answer to the question, "which country has the most time zones" is misleading. One would assume the answer would refer to 'within its own borders". In that case it is Russia. Your answer France includes all of its territories world wide which should have been implied in the question. If one wants to ask an honest straight forward question, that is.

Sigh. Can you cite your sources? Because From WIKIPEDIA and WORDLATLAS: France, including its overseas territories, has the most time zones with 12 (13 including its claim in Antarctica). From Wikipedia, English Word Origins: French: 28.30%; Latin, including modern scientific and technical Latin: 28.24%; Germanic languages, as inherited from Old English, from Proto-Germanic, or a more recent borrowing from a Germanic language such as Old Norse, excluding Germanic words borrowed from a Romance language: 25%;[a] Greek: 5.32%; no etymology given: 4.04%; derived from proper names: 3.28%; and all other languages: less than 1%. If you disagree, please take it up with those sites. Thanks
