82 as a non native speaker. Also:
“Lethargic”
Definitely has nothing to do with the answer “Affected by lethargy; sluggish” lol
88/100 Not too bad for a non native speaker.
Fascinating! As a native speaker, I got 89/100 (“you know 72,000 words”), but perfect on the core and intermediate levels. There were a few that I knew I’d heard before, but couldn’t quite place, and then there were some words that I just got lucky with my experiences, like having recently reread Gulliver’s Travels and being asked about “brobdingnagian,” which literally comes from that book.
I’m curious what other native speakers get, and how difficult even the lower levels are for those learning English.
Native speaker, I scored 96, something like 75k. There were a few I didn’t know but figured out from their parts and the available choices. I missed 3 in grandmaster and one in the previous difficulty.
I’m curious how my score would average out over a few attempts.
There are definitely some deep cuts. Like really niche jargon and archaic words.
- But I feel that a lot of these words, especially towards the end, I would not be able to define if I did not have multiple choice. And some that I did not know at all were easy to guess because I knew many of the root words. And then, some I’m just embarrassed that I missed.
native english speaker here. 93/100, also just got lucky on a few. Interestingly, i missed the most in the “advanced” section, despite that being the middle tier… I guess weird words stick in my head better? There were a couple i missed where I apparently learned the word via context-clues while reading, but with the total opposite of the true meaning, and just never noticed, lol.
At least six
Surprisingly easy because it is multiple guess. Some of them, I had no clue and guessed lucky. Some of the ones they placed as “grandmaster” are stuff I would consider intermediate. And quite a few of them are measuring how well read you are (from a western classical education background).
