Vocabulary - Countries of the World

This Spanish Difficult Review quiz will take a look at the names of various countries as they are spoken in Spanish. You had a very similar quiz as this one back in the Spanish Medium Review quiz series. In that quiz, you learned that there are approximately 196 countries, although borders are constantly changing. You also learned the Spanish name for 50 of those 196 countries. In this quiz you will learn another 37 countries.

Many countries are spelled the same in both English and Spanish so why learn the countries? Because even though many are spelled the same, they are not always pronounced the same. You will need to depend upon what you have learned about Spanish pronunciation to say the country names correctly.
