This was mentioned earlier in the thread. Her intention on that final consonant is unclear, because she doesn't come down hard on it. It wouldn't have been fair to reverse.Leander wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 7:51 amI thought I was the only person who noticed this, so I assumed I misheard her response.This Is Kirk! wrote: ↑Wed Jul 28, 2021 1:40 amI was pretty certain that's how Kathleen pronounced it. I was really expecting a reversal.

Kathleen shared this through the archive and a correction suggestion:
Yes, I'm Kathleen from this episode. I challenged my "Somoza" answer during the first break (they encouraged us to speak up if we felt we had any problems with how things were going) and they discussed and made the call to give me the money back. Guess all those years working for lawyers came in handy!!!!!

Lol yes. I was responding to OP who said Abu Dhabi was a bad guess. I get confused about UAE and other emirates, so if you were to ask me to name an emirate, any emirate - I'd have to go through some mental gymnastics before answering. I'm also a bit fuzzy on Middle East geography - but rest assured, I will remedy this!jeff6286 wrote: ↑Tue Jul 27, 2021 8:47 pmGuess what the E stands for in UAE?morbeedo wrote: ↑Tue Jul 27, 2021 7:04 amUAE consists of 7 independent city-states, namely Abu Dhabi and Dubai.

Not really sure if the cities qualify as emirates?BrigadierSolo13 wrote: ↑Mon Jul 26, 2021 8:56 pm Went the wrong way on my guess for DD2, finding myself settling for Oman instead of Qatar.

These are the seven emirates:
Abu Dhabi (capital)
Ajman
Dubai
Fujairah
Ras Al Khaimah
Sharjah
Umm Al Quwain
