Songs has to be right to fit the wording of the clue.

Result isn't published for two weeks.

Danword gleans their clues/answers from crosswords and also get as many wrong as they do right.

Let's regroup in 2 weeks and see what Kate really wants as an answer.


'What are the languages....?'

'They are the sings'


Just wrong IMO.

The dictionaries do include sing as a noun with the plural sings.
A sing is defined as something along the lines of "a gathering for the purpose of singing songs".
But songs fits perfectly
It's an odd clue isn't it
