Hi i m from india
and the language in which our natinal anthem is writtern is no longer spoken
so its hard to get the meaning of this
but still the words are quite familiar
so we can guess out the essence of our national anthem
but exact word to word
meaning
i guess less than 0.05% people know that in muy countary

I used to remember all the words pretty well during school time. But by now, I think I could only remember about 80% of it. But if given some practice, I could remember it all in a short time. I always heard part of it from the national radio station, during mid night. So, I that's why until now, I could still remember most of it

This is a good question,I remember in school how we would recite the Star Spangled Banner which is the United States national anthem,and now it seems we hardly ever here the national anthem,I am not sure I could say that I remember all the words from the Star Spangled Banner but I know I remember like ninety percent of them and if I listen to it and recite it,then I would remember the rest,and be able to see exactly how many words I remember.

Knowing and singing the national anthem is one of the signs of being patriotic. I do know the lyrics of our national anthem. i've learned it since the time I went to school and some lyrics before I even started school. The national anthem is in the national language and I also know how to sing it in the english version and I am memorizing the spanish version.
