Funny, I didn't know that was a language

Today was the last day of school. It is a nightmare, keeping students quelled in a tiny room when all anyone wants to do is be out of there.

So, to amuse myself and them, we started playing trivia. I was making up questions about myself, my life, and my family. The answers they gave cracked me up.

"Where did Miss L go to college?"
"NORTHWESTERN!" (Clearly, I've said this enough to instill it in their brains)
"What state is Northwestern in?"
"CHICAGO!"
"Guys, Chicago is not a state."

But my personal favorite:
"What language did Miss L study in college?"
"Spanish?" "German?" "French?" "Japanese?"
"No. I'll give you a hint, it is not spoken anymore."
"Greek."
"That's still spoken. But you're closer."

Then, R shouts through the crowd: "I know! I know! Miss L, its JEWISH."
My response: "Jewish isn't a language."
