Sixty=six years to learn about “leaf peeping”. Dianne 4 years ago 7/10 better than I thought I would do. Sherry Ware 4 years ago 8/10 America didn’t exist in the 1300s. How could we have begun using “Fall” then? Makes no sense. Rich D 4 years ago 7/10 Americans used the word fall and the British used the word autumn in “The late 1300s”? Who writes this stuff? Lana 4 years ago I am questioning if there were Americans in the late1300’s. Did surprise myself with 8/10!! Rick 4 years ago AMAC needs to find someone who can use some common sense in finding their games! If they mean Indians had a word that meant fall, that’s a pretty poor way to ask tge question. Nora 4 years ago 9/10. There were no “Americans” in the late 1300’s. “America” firs appeared when Waldseemüller named the new lands “America” on his 1507 map in recognition of Amerigo Vespucci’s understanding that a new continent had been uncovered by Christopher Columbus and subsequent voyages in the late 15th century. Freda . 4 years ago 8/10**I knew eight and guessed the other two wrong.. Debbie Reynolds 4 years ago 9/10. There were not “Americans” in the 1300s. If you mean native tribesmen, they all had different words. These quizzes are often so dumb. Commonasensa 4 years ago Yeah, the when did Americans call it fall question is bogus. No Americans in the 1500s. Anyway, I always find these quizzes interesting. George Gibson 4 years ago Question ask when did Americans first used the word fall. It did not say Americans were around in the 1300 or 1400 so the answer had to be either 1500 or 1600. No where does the question say Americans were around in the 1300 or 1400. Kate 4 years ago Well, not good for me. 5/10. Half right. Didn’t think Amerians were here in the 1300’s. Guess I missed that in hisotry class. Cynthia 4 years ago 7/10 Interesting questions. Nancy 4 years ago 9/10 The best I’ve EVER done :-)!! Katie 4 years ago Question 2 says Americans first called the season fall in the early 1500’s. Excuse me, but there weren’t any English speaking Americans until the early1600’s. Actual English settlers arrived at Jamestown in 1609, and the Pilgrims in1620. Dan 4 years ago WOW..only 2 wrong. Susan P 4 years ago 6 out of 10. But, I disagree with the correct answers. It is Oct 21 and my trees in KY are still mostly green. Won’t really see Fall colors until Nov.
