Hmhmm, I got 22,800.

I'm a fan of those English terms

20,100 for me. That was actually pretty hard.

15000 ! This was hard indeed.

18,700

I find that disappointing.

If you tick every box it gives you 45,000.

Well. This test tests only English vocabulary? I'm not interested.

24,300 but French, Latin and Greek helped a lot.

Actually I took it several times and got different results : I also got 11000 and 18900. French and Latin helped me too ahah.

Well yeah obviously there'd be some variation in the results, the test isn't exactly definitive.
Especially if, like me, you look up many the words in the boxes you don't tick. Then if those words came up again my vocabulary would magically jump by a large amount despite only having learned 10 or so new words.

DesLife · Post by **DesLife** » Tue Jul 19, 2011 1:16 pm

Yeah but those are important variations.

Though I suspect I just had not been paying much attention when I got 11K ahah.

Apparently about 11,000.
Satisfied, I guess.

I feel like resurrecting this topic for a moment.

34,500! I'm pretty happy with this for now. I've been reading a lot more lately, and I've also made a habit of writing down any word I come across that I don't fully understand the meaning of (or have never heard before), then looking them up at some point. Improving my language skills is something that I always strive for, though I didn't think that roughly a year's-worth of very lax, very scattered (but generally consistent) studying would yield this much of an improvement.

Then again, it's a quick online test and probably isn't that accurate.

Wait, what am I doing? I'm supposed to be improving my French, and instead I'm wasting my time with this wonderful language.

I have upgraded to 22900, but am ashamed of having so much less knowledge than Adsolution.

11,400. Waa. Though I'm happy that I knew the word "portmanteau". And better than an average foreign speaker.

I got 29,300.

4100
I'm surprised I got that much. I though I know way to less vocabulary
