English Language Quiz

I would like to begin a Triva Quiz here, for everyone who likes English language.
Total Quiz is open to everybody.

I will ask you a question and if you know the answer, you have to post it here.
Each first right answer will get a point.
Your points will be calculated according to the total of your correct answers.

The questions will be from different domains: grammar, civilization, music, sport ...
New questions are chosen randomly, from the “easy” and “average” levels to “difficult”.

The answers must be in English (exception if the question deals with translation)

Good luck.
