I got this from [livejournal.com profile] acampbell and received the same result she did - not surprisingly, since the answers were easy:



Congrats! So you do know a lot about the Luthors. You
know that Lucas wasn't killed, Lillian didn't
kill herself, Jullian was killed, and that Lex
and Lionel are a couple of really bad boys!
So... I guess you've seen all the episodes (or
at least most of season 3) and love or at least
like the Luthors. Because if you didn't then
why do you remeber all this stuff? So the
bottom line is you answered most (or all) of
the questions right. You deserve a big hug from
the Luthors. If you do get that hug... can you
give me their number?


What do you know about the Luthors (Smallville)?

The answers were easy but figuring out some of the questions took some doing... :-)

That's for sure!

I got the same result, which is odd, since I haven't watched since S3. Did they decide that Lionel killed his parents eventually?

btw, linguistic data are samples of language usage. In my case, sentences with slight variations in phrasing.

To take this quiz, for example - to my mind replying to questions with 'true' or false' is ungrammatical. 'True' and 'false' can only apply to statements. However, this quiz provides empirical evidence that such usage exists. As a good linguist, I'd check speakers' views on the matter to make sure that my intuition is in fact shared. (Of course, linguists of other schools would just stipulate their choice of a rule and try to impose its use.)

See? I said the answers were easy! You don't even need to watch the show to guess them.

Agreed. I wondered if the writer's native language was one in which the words for 'true' and 'false' are the same as 'yes' and 'no', if such a language exists.

Great icon.

I don't even know if some guesses were true - that Li didn't kill his parents or Chloe.

I'm sure there are such languages, or at least ones in which these words would require the same sentence structure. Unfortunately, it's more likely to be a less than careful native English speaker.

Thanks on the icon. Adam [livejournal.com profile] saprklebutch made it.

Of which there are so many around. I can't even make claims to superiority - my English is good but I make a lot of typos.

[livejournal.com profile] sparklebutch is very talented!

Everyone makes typos. There's one in my poor poll that LJ won't let me fix. But that quiz was too regular to be a typo.

And I concur that Adam is extremely talanted. :)
