This Tower of Babel variation is a simple game to test our language knowledge as a group and learning words in new languages at the same time.
One starts the game or a new part of the game with a (small) picture of a word + the word in English.
F.i.
or
Church
The next person replies with the word in a language one knows + mentions the language between (...)
Of cause without looking it up, don't cheat and spoil!
F.i.
church (English)
= best to keep the first one easy/general like 'church', when giving the word 'cathedral' you just make it more difficult to make a longer line.
Next answers with f.i.
kerk (Dutch)
= an answer I could post
Next f.i.
Kirche (German)
Next f.i.
église (French)
Next f.i.
iglesia (Spanish)
Next
chiesa (Italian)
Next
kerki (Snanan Tongo)
= answer I could post thanks to having a stepdad from Surinam
Next
kósciól (Polish)
= answer assuming someone knows some Polish...
Next
kirkko (Finnish)
Do we have any Finnish members? Guess not but maybe someone has a Finnish friend or Finnish family, studied Finnish, did his/her placement in Finland or... one never knows.
When no one knows any other foreign translations anymore, a next person posts a new picture and it starts all over.
I'll start with a new pic in the reply. Who will take up the challenge?!
