Watch as Usada Pekora hosts the word quiz game with Inugami Korone, Shiranui Flare, Shirogane Noel, Houshou Marine, Ookami Mio, Shirakami Fubuki, and Nekomata Okayu! The goal is simple, to match their answers, but can they do it? Probably not lol

There were a LOT of questions here, but a majority were either very very challenging to translate, IE "name a 3 kana fruit" or too Japan related (Name a japanese famous idol) or a combination of the two (name a three syllable prefecture.) Therefore, I tried my best in choosing these options and really taking the liberty to try and translate them well. Here are the questions:
0:00 poem and intro
1:30 name a large ecommerce site
2:07 name a sea sport
2:48 name a famous pirate
3:31 name a country starting with A
4:06 a drink with 3 or more syllables
4:52 perfect winter sport
5:33 handsome comedian
6:13 name a playground equipment
7:03 a tax to remove
7:29 an insect in homes
8:10 A food to represent japan

TL notes
More accurate translations for some of these would be "kana." Japanese as a language uses a syllabary writing system, which means every letter can only be written in a consonant (optional)+vowel form. Thus, milk is written mi-ru-ku hence why it is three.

Japanese is a mora-based tonal language which means when it tries to copy english stress, it adds vowels. (an example of english stress: rePLY. you don't say REEply.) This is why cola in Japanese is ko-o-la. hence three syllables.

Japanese has several registers of honorific speech, which can just beautify or make a word more formal. for example, omizu instead of mizu (water) is just a slightly more formal version of mizu. By itself, mizu would just have two syllables. I know "the water" doesnt quite work, but it just was all I could think of after brainstorming a lot, and it gets the idea across that pekora added a meaningless needless syllable to make it three letters long.
