Title: How big is your
Post by: Johnny OrganDonor on February 17, 2012, 07:50:22 AM
vocabulary?

http://testyourvocab.com/ (http://testyourvocab.com/)


I'm thinking there are a few members here that could peg the needle on this.  I only scored the exact average for my age but maybe this is the case where size doesn't matter as much as how you use it?

Cool - I'm at 10,800 - for a non-native that's the level of people having lived in an English speaking country a couple of years, which I never did. Thanks DMF [laugh]

Yeah, I thought I was doing pretty well 'til I hit that column.  Apparently my vocabulary is only average.
