Only 85%, but considering it's been 42 years since I last had a Latin class, that's acceptable.

Never studied Latin. But I got 40%

80%. It was tricky, as they wanted the exact translation: the multiple choice answers had both the translation and how the phrase is used idiomatically.

75% and I was educated in the US public school system which means I never learned any latin. Not bad.

Failed on Invicta and Alias.
But I'm satisfied, I also never studied Latin, but I have to admit that I love multiple choice questions. I would have gotten someting in the vicinity of 0% otherwise.

70% without studying latin ever... but my mother tongue is french (latin derived): de facto this helps that

85%, and I've never had a Latin class.

Never took a Latin lesson and got 65% sometimes picked it by common usage and other times by the derived English words. Saw people had problems with alibi so I tried to get derived word instead of common meaning and blew it.

75% - never studied Latin
One of the wrong answers was only because I second-guessed myself (duh!)

I asked Siri "Surely it's not going to rain today?"
She said, "It is, and don't call me Shirley".
It appears I forgot to take my phone off Airplane mode.

In order for that to happen, Dalek's first post would have to make no sense at all. It only won't make sense for those who don't get the reference. It's justifiable to miss the reference because the movie came out quite a while ago. I'd think anyone older than 45 should have gotten it.

Correct, I didn't understand his first post.
Older than 45? You're eliminating a big bunch of CP.

OK, but the movie Airplane came out in the 70's. Unless you are an old movie buff or older than a certain age you won't get a reference based on that movie. It was a comedy, and you wouldn't even have to go to the movie to get the reference made because it was in the trailers so much the tag line was so worn out that it was obnoxious. I really don't recall the conversation, but co-pilot said something like "Surely you know that...", the pilot replies "Of course I ..., and don't call me Shirley!"
The whole movie was meant to be ridiculous and succeeded. I thought the whole movie was lame and was glad I didn't pay money to see it.
