The 'Y' quiz - mistakes?

Trussell | 11:50 Tue 14th Nov 2006 | Quizzes & Puzzles

Could there be a mistake with Q.28, please? The largest GOTHIC church in Europe does not begin with a Y.

and also Q. 48 - I find that the fifth longest river in the world does not begin with a 'Y'

Any comments/help with these 2 questions would be gratefully received.

I searched Wikipedia and (it says) the 5th longest river is the YENISEI in Mongolia/Russia. I will keep looking for largest Gothic church in Europe.

5th. longest river -Yenisey--Angara-Selenga-Ider, Russia.

Also, I have just found out that York Minster is the largest Gothic church in Northern Europe (acc to the York Minster website)! Does that count? It may be what they are thinking of..... you never know with these quizzes, the questions sometimes fit the answers not the other way around. Good luck anyway.

I think it is clear what answers are expected - even if their accuracy is in doubt !

I put York minister

boaw

I go for YORK MINSTER. This is a Church - Seville Cathedral is the largest Gothic religious building in Europe, but it is not a Church. Source : Minster website and recent TV series on the Minster.

Thank you all for this help. I had both Yenisei and Yenisey down "in rough" and I see that cheaton and boaw have given me the same two - Is this the same river, but spelt differently, please?

York Minister was also my guess, but Cathedrals are also churches - Y.Minster is a cathedral/minster/church too - so, if you are saying a cathedral is not a church, then neither is a Minster - and vice versa, of course!

Back to the quandry!

Trussell - as this river's name is translated from Chinese who knows what the correct spelling is? You'll just have to go for one or the other.

Of course cathedrals and minsters are churches - just very big ones!

That was my point, cheaton. Therefore, Seville is the largest church - and the question is a mistake!
