Finland?

A bit more local to Hungary than that!

Estonia?

I too would have gone for the other Finno-Ugric languages.

It’s not one of those, just saying

Sweden!

You’ve… already guessed that one

Hungary!

Very close

I find this question relies on a lot of definitions. First of all, what would you consider "runes"? My guess would be Turkey if you consider any alphabetical characters to be runes, but my guess is that your definition of runes points to Celtic/Germanic/Finno-Ugric writing systems like others mentioned before. In my own personal view it's kind of silly to call early writing systems "runes", as they're really not that special in any way. In any case, Turkey changed its alphabet in 1928. Iceland still uses characters that originate from Old Norse. My wild guess then would be to look at non-official countries like Basque. So depending on what your definition of runes are my answers are Turkey and Basque respectively.

Just in case the answer changed in the meantime.

My answer before wasn't taking this hint into consideration.

You are indeed correct!!! In some areas of Transylvania, Runes were still being used as recently as the late 19th century (maybe even the 20th, but that could be a stretch )

Question 18: going off the topic of linguistics, what is the national dish of the United Kingdom?

Fish and chips!

Somehow that’s not the case

Bacon and beans!

Despite bacon and beans being very tasty, the national food is a bit more exotic than that

Steak and Kidney Pie?

It’s nothing that sounds particularly British, that’s another clue! Y’all can guess again if you wish

Is it not chicken tikka masala?
