      18,000. Huh.

      Thanks to xkcd I was able to check "portmanteau" and "malapropism" though .

      I'm retired

        30,000

        This number probably varies substantially depending on your daily reading material and what languages you've studied; I would have never encountered a word like "tatterdemalion" if I didn't have friends in theater. My girlfriend would beat my score on this test for sure, in large part because she voraciously reads English lit from the 1700s to the 1900s.

          26,400, although I didn't click some of the ones I'm pretty sure I could figure out by root words/suffixes/prefixes/etc.

              38,000.
              The first part I recognized all of them, but I had no idea about some of the last words of the second part :\

                    Re: Test your vocab

                    i got 20,800
                    i think this test should b limited 2 verbs and adjectives, the amount of nouns u kno iz p dependent on yr interests, education, and etc.

                    e.g. haz spoiler o0o0o0o0o
                    e.g. yr only gonna kno what "ragamuffin" meanz if u like cats or have owned a ragamuffin cat.

                    ps. like reach says v below me v, a lot of yr scores i call BULLSHIT on. its not whether or not u have seen a word b4, its whether or not u can use it effectively.

                          She might've just been clicking every word she'd seen before, not necessarily those she could accurately define

                          31,100 for me

                            14,200 here. I'm not surprised because I've only read a few books. I could easily learn a lot more, but I'm too stupid and lazy.

                              Don't tell yourself things like that; you most certainly are not too stupid. It's depressing to hear someone regard their self in such a way.
