Trouble with a hint

Frank C.C1Kwiziq Q&A regular contributor

If I recall, the hint was to use the term, 'Ivory Coast', which tricked me up. I normally would use 'Côte d'Ivoire'. I opted to accept the hint, which was not accepted. I felt duped by the hint. Perhaps others fell into this same trap. Take a look at it.

Hi Frank,

Having had a look I think you misunderstood the hint.

What it said -

"In French you say Quebec or Ivory Coast"

stressing the 'or' because in English it is 'and'.

Hope that clears this matter.
