Title: All Look Same?
Post by: Foxy Brown on September 01, 2005, 07:07:41 PM

Chinese. Japanese. Korean. What's the difference? Some say it's easy to see. Others think it's difficult - maybe even impossible. Who can really tell? That's what we want to find out. For this test, we'll show you a series of 18 pictures of CJKs. Select which country you think each is from. When you're finished we'll tell you your score and how you stack up to others. Future tests will include landscapes, names, architecture and more. And if you're wondering whether or not to take offense, remember: alllooksame is not a statement. It's a question. (http://www.alllooksame.com)

Another old one, but maybe some of you haven't seen this one either.

I got an 11 and a Very Good.

I could tell who were Korean and Japanese, but I couldn't tell who were Chinese.

If you could tell between the two, then why didn't you just pick chinese for the ones you couldn't tell.  :roll:

Post by: Loki! on September 04, 2005, 10:29:25 AM

Because I can't tell if they're chinese or not. No definite features that sets them quite apart rofl.

I remember taking this test, or one very much like it, a while back.  I don't remember my exact score, but I think I got somewhere around half or so right.  The way I identified some of them correctly didn't work for all of them.  I guess that means you can't always tell nationality from looks very easily.
