Sally Onyett, Grow up! Some people, not necessarily all Brits, but the narrow-minded, like to think there is only one way to do things and that's YOUR way! Get over yourself. SMH 🙄 How do you even know who wrote this quiz. The website is based in Russia! The plural of "roof" in English, including in England, is roofs. While "rooves" is an older, less common, and now outdated form, "roofs" is the standard and accepted plural form used in modern English.

question 7 is wrong, the plural of ROOF is ROOVES if you are going to make a quiz about the plurals of English words, then use the English version

Steve Kemp, according to Oxford dictionary, which I chose as you are from the UK: “The standard plural form in BrE is roofs, but there is an occasional, and recognized, minority form rooves, which will disturb many people. It is a classic example of a disputed plural”. “Roofs is the plural of roof in all varieties of English. Rooves is an old secondary form, and it still appears occasionally by analogy with other irregular plurals…” (Webster) I have, however, seen both plurals in various usages.

English or American English. You Americans change the spelling, dates and all sorts to confuse the world. Rooves not even an option. Dated 1/7/24. 7.th of January or 1st of July ? 😂

I'm not sure about 142. I'm not easily bored because I can always find something to do. I do get annoyed easily. I do like alone time. May be a bit introverted. People say I'm individualistic.
