About 70 percent of Earth's surface is covered by water.
True. The oceans hold nearly all of it. That is why Earth looks blue from space.
Ice cubes sink in a glass of water.
False. Ice floats because water expands as it freezes, making ice about 9 percent less dense than liquid water. Most other solids sink in their own liquid.
Peanuts grow underground.
True. After the plant flowers, its stalks bend down and push the young pods into the soil. Peanuts are legumes, relatives of peas and beans.
Bulls charge at a cape because they hate the colour red.
False. Cattle don't see red the way humans do. They react to the movement of the cloth, not its colour.
There are more trees on Earth than stars in the Milky Way.
True. Earth has about 3 trillion trees, while the Milky Way holds roughly 100 to 400 billion stars.
What is True or False?
True or False is PlayWord's daily trivia quiz: every day brings five true or false questions with answers, about history, geography, nature, science, the human body or popular myths, and you decide whether each one is true or false.
After every answer you see straight away whether you were right, with a short explanation of the facts. A round takes about two minutes, a nice warm-up before the other daily games.
How to play
- Read the statement and tap True or False. On a phone you can also swipe the card right (true) or left (false); on a computer use the → and ← keys.
- The card turns green or red and the explanation appears. Next (or Enter) brings the next statement.
- The statements go from easy to hard: two easy, two medium, one hard. Two or three of them are true each day.
- Answers are final, with no timer and no hints. At the end you see your score and all five statements with their explanations.
Tips
- Don't rule a statement out just because it sounds odd: the most surprising ones are often true.
- Well-known myths, like the goldfish with a three-second memory, often show up as false statements.
- Watch the numbers: a false statement is often off only by a year, a distance or an amount.
