Spanish Language Trivia Questions

1. I've written a few quizzes about Dr. House, whose Spanish name would be Dr. Casa. If I said "el Dr. Casa se casa", what would he be doing soon?

From Quiz
Celebrando 300 Quizzes

Answer: Getting married

My first three quizzes placed online after hitting the 200 mark were about specific episodes of the successful TV show "House", starring Hugh Laurie. The show was about a brilliant yet unconventional diagnostician who, with the help of his talented team, is able to spot patients' obscure medical conditions that others can't. A "casa" in Spanish is a house or home. However, when used as a verb, "casar" or "casarse" means "to get married". Therefore, "el Dr. Casa se casa" means "Dr. House is getting married".

2. From the Arabic "al-qútun", we get the Spanish "algodón", the word for this substance that may have been new to the people of Iberia (Spain) during the Moorish rule of the peninsula in Medieval times.

From Quiz Spanish Words of Arabic Origin

Answer: Cotton

It is believed that cotton had been introduced, or at least imported, by Moorish (North African Arabs) during the 8th or 9th century A.D. (C.E.)

3. Which title is the Brothers Grimm's "Little Red Riding Hood" in Spanish?

From Quiz Cuentos de Hadas (Fairy Tales)

Answer: Caperucita Roja

This Brothers Grimm story (first published by French story teller Charles Perrault) is about a young girl, who is crossing the woods to visit her grandmother, and a big bad wolf. The words I chose for the wrong answers translate as: "Azul" is "blue" "Amarilla" is "yellow" "Añil" is "indigo"

4. "Give It Up For The Great Raul Di Blasio" was a quiz about an Argentinian musician. How would you say "up" in Spanish?

From Quiz Mis Quizzes en Español 2

Answer: Arriba

Raul Di Blasio is an Argentinian pianist and composer, known mainly for his piece "Corazon de Niño" (Heart of a Child), which he wrote after listening the ultrasound for his first child. The song is actually one of my favorites to play when I sit behind the piano! "Abajo" means "down", while "planta" means "plant", and "izquierda" means "left".

5. Película: "Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios". How does this movie title translate in English?

From Quiz Pintura, Película, Libro o Canción

Answer: Women On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown

"Mujeres al borde de un ataque de nervios" (Women on the verge of a nervous breakdown) is a 1988 black comedy film by Spanish director Pedro Almodóvar. The wrong answers are fictional and they translate as: "Men On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown" is "Hombres al borde de un ataque de nervios". "Mothers On The Verge Of A Nervous Breakdown" is "Madres al borde de un ataque de nervios". "Lovers On The Verge Of A Nervous Laugh" is "Amantes al borde de un ataque de nervios".

6. Steve loved his video games much more than he did playing OUTDOORS. What is the Spanish equivalent of the word "outdoors"?

From Quiz Locate the Spanish Word

Answer: Al aire libre

The Spanish translation of the sentence is: Steve amaba sus juegos de video mucho máis de lo que le gustaba jugar al aire libre. "Dentro" is indoors. "Arriba" is upstairs. "Abajo" is downstairs.

7. Are you hungry? My first quiz was about food, so you might as well take a look at it! The title of that quiz was "The Great American Hamburger", so what would be the most literal (and logical) translation to Spanish?

From Quiz Mis Quizzes en Español

Answer: La Gran Hamburguesa Americana

The word "hamburger" actually comes from German, after the city of Hamburg in Germany. The origin of the hamburger is disputed, with several people claiming it as their invention, most notably in the United States and Germany. The other options were a bit weird, since "salchicha" means "sausage", "huevo" means "egg", and "cachetada" means "slap"!

8. Two of the shortest and most common words in Spanish differ by just an accent. Where would someone be if you described their actions as follows "Él elige el elepé"?

From Quiz What a Difference an Accent Makes

Answer: A record store

The sentence in the question, translated into English, is "He chooses the LP". "El" is the masculine definite object in Spanish - that is, a form of "the", while "él" translates to "he". They are pronounced the same, so the accent mark is used in writing to distinguish between these two very common words. When it comes to speech, you have to rely on context. Both "él" and "el" are ultimately derived from the same Latin root, the demonstrative "ille".
