[shenmue]

19. I got 29,625

[MuseRider]

All these years being a reader really helped!

[shenmue]

55. Cool

[Phentex]

45. same score here! I guessed at many...

had to pay more attention to the word synonym or antonym than I did the actual words.

[lastlib]

58. 30500.....

(but "fugacious" was a half wild-a** guess.........)

[Donkees]

67. That word wasn't listed in my test, but brings to mind 'tempus fugit' :)

[MrPurple]

105. Same thing I got - they could replace some of the very basic words with harder ones

[RazzleCat]

77. ya beat me, 29100

[mythology]

18. Well apparently we score well enough to pretend

At the very least we could be one of the infinite monkeys on the infinite typewriters.

That said, I think the test was designed to benefit those who are good at multiple choice tests. Many times at least two of the answers can be immediately discarded.

Also this test doesn't actually test the actual usage of words. I may have been able to remember the definition of the word salubrious, but this is the first time I've ever used it in a sentence.

(but I guess it ain't bragging if you can do it, and you can and did!)

Congrats! .

[IcyPeas]

9. bah

too much clicking. I gave up

[TexasBushwhacker]

10. Trump would get a third of the way through

and declare it a stupid test.

[ailsagirl]

32. somehow I can't see him ever taking it

[True Dough]

41. He would have been looking for "bigly"

as a synonym to large.

When I was quite little, my Grandmother had one of those huge Miriam Webster dictionaries on a stand in her house, and when I was there, sometimes for the whole summer, I would read as many words as I could..
today I have that dictionary and stand, and my kids used it when they were small.

[ailsagirl]

Quite a gift

Your vocabulary size is equal to that of a 30-year-old successful American businessperson!

Also, they don't tell you what you got wrong...so how's a person supposed to learn?

Ha! (on edit) That site said that green is the best hair color for me! lol

[ailsagirl]

28. Green hair?

Green eyes I can see but green hair? I'll have to try that one

Naaaa, just a nerdy bookworm since the late '50's, before that was even cool! And, I must admit, I guessed at a few of them....

[jalan48]

20. 30150 with numerous (many) guesses.

You probably know more than you think-- whenever I guess, I invariably pick the wrong answer

Good job

Guessed at a lot
Had to ask my 15 yr old
What antonym and synonym was
As I always mix em up
😂

[ailsagirl]

23. think of ant- as against (like anti) and syn- as same (as in synchronize)

You still did great!!

I'm not really surprised. I'm a lawyer and a chief of staff for a local elected Democratic official. Words are my life. That, in part, is why this drives me so crazy. Words really really matter. A lot.

*****NOT making excuses, but being noted here that I wasn't prepared for the shifting back and forth between antonyms and synonyms in the questions.

54. Re-take in the light of day. An encouraging difference, but sounds condescending

But then, I do make my living at this.

[politicat]

74. 30,500

Deal was annoying. Yes, it can mean a sale. It can also mean a plea. Both slang, different contexts. The correct one assumes little interaction with the defense side of the law. Which is classist.

[mainer]

78. That was one I hovered over as well

I think there were 2 where I thought there could be an alternative defensible choice.

[likesmountains 52]

46. Last time I did this, I got like a 23,000 or something. But this time...

It's at 30,150. That's one hell of a margin of error.

I mean, it's either that, or this is a not very scientific test. Wouldn't wanna go there.

50. And yet, I swear out loud all day every day

so much so that they had to move me away from decent humans at work. (I do good work. Moving was preferable to firing)

[Thor_MN]

59. I always chuckle when I see a Mens Wear Department sign

And mutter "You're damn right, they do."

[OriginalGeek]

68. Ha! so much that

we built a whole house for it!

[hunter]

51. I know a few people who create new words in ordinary conversation.

My wife's sister is one. And it's not that she doesn't already have a huge vocabulary. (No, not like Trump.)

The weird thing is that it's usually obvious what they are talking about. It leaves you thinking, "yeah, that word just sounds right."

I think it's some clue about the origins of languages. Certain people are catalysts for the creation and evolution of languages.

[ailsagirl]

70. It certainly is!!!

[mainer]

71. Is there a time factor in assessing the score?

I suspect that the faster you answer the questions correctly, the higher your score. Would be interested to know how it's graded.

[Iggo]

73. Nah, I spent ten minutes googling one answer and I still got a perfect score.

[Iggo]

72. It was so easy, I didn't even bother finishing it.

Ten words in and I was all "Yeah, I got this."

[tblue37]

109. Top .01%--but I guarantee my vocabulary is far more extensive than just

30,350 words! No way they can extrapolate that number from that silly test. Besides, although I got them right, most of those "synonyms" were related but not synonymous.
