Geoguessr tips as a noob

If it looks like a Swedish city but not quite Swedish then it's Norway. Also if it's darker and the roads are narrower.

If it looks like Norway/Sweden but more modern then it's Denmark. If it looks really modern then it's that northern city ausberg or whatever rather than Copenhagen

If it looks like a mix between scandi and Russia then finland

If it looks scandi but darker/misty then iceland

If the language looks russian but not quite then Bulgaria

If every road looks like a cycle lane then it's Netherlands and if it looks like the UK but with brick roads and if there's a lotts trams going down narrow roads and windmills

Narrow concrete roads are Austria usually or the area around

If there's a shop called something Doce then it's Portugal

If it looks like UK but not quite then it's Ireland

The difference between new Zealand and Australia is that in New Zealand everything be narrower and smaller and more British looking. hungryjacks makes the best burgers.

I need to learn how to stop getting Russian, Bulgarian and Greek alphabet mixed up.

greek is ez asf and bulgaria shares the cyrillic alphabet with russia

but bulgaria has both normal latin and cyrillic on signs so its also ez to tell apart

 

[fuse]

cuz everything i learned was from playing as i went i havent used any sites yet

stop capping nigga nobody learns "gen 4 cam in rwanda" just by playing

stop capping nigga nobody learns "gen 4 cam in rwanda" just by playing

bulgaria shares the cyrillic alphabet with russia

elab, i still struggle tellin em apart

elab, i still struggle tellin em apart

greek alphabet:

a lot of math symbols come from here and in general it looks pretty unique and less blocky compared to the alphabet that the other two countries use:

the cyrillic alphabet

all countries that use the cyrillic alphabet have some unique letters but thats too annoying to memorize so here are some general clues to tell different road signs apart:

-if the sign has both latin and cyrillic letters its either bulgaria, north macedonia, or serbia.
if the sign is blue then its bulgaria, if its yellow its one of the other two.

-if it has only cyrillic then its either russia, ukraine, mongolia, or kyrgyzstan.
there aren't any major differences in alphabets here but other clues make these countries easy to tell apart from eachother
