You may be surprised I got only 2 on question 2. That is because I interpreted the question to mean what digit comes after the first nine digits of pi, which I correctly answered as 3. Of course, they meant the first digit of a 9. I can see how it could be read that way too. Nevertheless, I shall submit a challenge.

Don't read too much into the fact that most of these are two or three words
For those of you who didn't understand the purples:
For example, an "English horn" is a slightly larger version of an oboe - it is a wind instrument, not a "horn," and presumably it was not invented in England.
Speaking of which, here's a possible example that they don't use British terms; I was under the impression that their term for English horn was "cor Anglais".
