Really? I didn't remember that about Cleopatra.
Anyway, your answer isn't right.

Just for Vokial, I'm changing number 14 phrasing:
14. Four languages, which are still in use today, developed out of the Ancient Assyrian: Arabic, Hebrew, Aramean and...? Who speak that language today?
Value - 4 points (2 points for a half answer)

"It was the later Tudors who decided bathing was all but suicidal, it was so dangerous to health, although Queen Elizabeth I did have a bath once a month ‘whether she needed it or not’." (source)
Also a lot of nice sources in this article about this subject

Syriac was developed out of the akkadian, akkadian was develop out of the Ancient Assyrian
Also scroll the page (the bath Q) - more then 10 book are saying that.
The biggest tree (in height) is called El Arbol de Tule and its in Mexico. Who said that we are searching for volume? No one.

20 has already been answered.
And you didn't get 10 well.
I see that 10 is very hard for you all, so:
1) I increased the Value to 5.
2) I'll help you a bit: "10. Complete the saying: "I don't care if you like me or hate me, as long as you spell..."

Was my 14. correct (the one with the languages)?
Or the one with Elizabeth (every ten days?)

Quote: 14. Tigrinya?
VERY close, but not correct.
Quote: ...my name right.
I'll accept that. 5 points to Joonas.
The actual sentence goes: "I don't care if you like me or hate me, as long as you spell my name correctly." All the provocative commercials are based on that. Their name gets into you, even if you hate the product or the company, you'll still remember it.

2. Once per how long the queen Elizabeth took a bath?
>> women always cause troubles to me..hmm...in which part of her life? because when she was young her father didn't take care of her and she was not so clean. when she grew she could take care of herself. can't you just give one tip?
4. What is a war on a battlefield with no soil and troops with no soul?
>> in heroes games? it's virtual battle with no real soil and the creatures have no soul..they're like puppets to us
14. Four languages, which are still in use today, developed out of the Ancient Assyrian: Arabic, Hebrew, Aramean and...? Who speak that language today?
>> ...and Akkadian? i think that the arabs still speak this language.

Incorrect. But again close, Asheera.
Nice try, Dj.
By the way, I solved number 4 in a minute when I was 9. It isn't a hard one. I increased its value anyway.
