    Oh I thought you meant that you put Superman but it was the wrong answer. :o
    I put one of the other answers and saw that Superman was correct. :rotfl::rotfl::rotfl:

    From wiki re supercalifragilistic... "According to Richard M. Sherman, co-writer of the song with his brother, Robert, the word was created by them in two weeks"

    From thefreedictionary: "Word History: Superman, the all-American 20th-century comic-book hero, takes his name from the 19th-century German philosopher Friedrich Nietzsche's term for the ideal superior man"

    From these, the correct answer to Q2 is Superman.

    I scored 6/6 using grannybiker's answers.
