It’s Tuesday, so here are 20 trivia questions to round off the day. We’re looking for a crazy metaphor, an item of clothing from ancient Rome and a bird with a striking feathered cap. Is your general knowledge up to the quiz?
We begin the 20 trivia questions with a more or less scientific question about a system to clean wastewater. Do you already have an idea? And do you maybe know, what doctors cut open during a tracheostomy? It can be temporary or permanent and helps patients for example when their upper airway is blocked.

We also ask your general knowledge about the distinguished citizens of ancient Rome. What did they actually wear? It was not just a piece of clothing, but also a symbol of Roman civic status and public identity. It was a long, rectangular piece of fabric that was wrapped around the body in a complex and elaborate way. There were various wrapping techniques that created different pleat patterns.
There is also a literary one waiting for you among the 20 trivia questions. In which novel by Victor Hugo from 1831 is the story of Quasimodo and Esmeralda told? The novel deals with prejudices against outsiders, especially people with physical differences. It is also about religious hypocrisy and the abuse of power in the name of religion. The story has been adapted many times, both for stage plays and for film and television.
The 20 trivia questions are also about the animal world. We ask about a cave-breeding bird with a long beak and a large, conspicuous feather cap. This feather cap consists of long, narrow feathers and is often put up when the bird is agitated or disturbed. It is also known for its characteristic call, which is often described as “hudhud” or “upupup”. This call can be heard during the mating season and when defending territory. If your general knowledge is good enough, you probably already have the right answer in your head.
