The Speak Christmas Quiz 2024

Le regole sono semplici:

• Il quiz è in inglese e deve essere giocato in inglese quanto più possibile! Le domande sono di difficoltà linguistica e culturale variabile.
  
  
• Non chiedete aiuti da casa, a Google, Siri o Alexa! Concentratevi e confrontatevi con la vostra squadra!
  
  
• L’ideale sarebbe giocare in gruppi di 3 o 4 persone ed un Quiz Master che, secondo la tradizione, deve recitare la parte di chi prende il quiz molto seriamente e indossare indumenti o accessori stravaganti in tema natalizio. Ogni squadra deve decidere un proprio nome.
  
  
• In caso di disputa sulla validità di una risposta, la decisione finale spetta al Quiz Master.
