Pub Quiz!

My friend Emelie and I decided to host a pub quiz/trivia night event in the dorm, so for about 2 weeks we prepared a bunch of 'world friendly' questions and then we also went through the process of translating those questions into Japanese. We had about 25 or so questions and another few picture based questions. Some of the questions we used were incredibly hard for Japanese people (Write the kanji for the word depression - look it up! It's one of the hardest to write.) and some of the questions were incredibly difficult for English speakers (what is natadecoco made from?) but overall the night was a success!

The 'quiz masters'
Yuko is the Japanese quiz master (she read the Japanese questions aloud) and Emelie and I were the English question readers.


Here's an example of some of our picture questions- name the country's flag, name the company's logo, name the country.


More picture questions! Name the car logo, characters, and movie scenes.


There were about 5 groups of 4 people and everyone paid 100yen to participate in our pub quiz! The winners received the money and second and third place winners just got a bunch of candy. It was a lot of fun though and we will most likely be doing another game night event soon!
