Same result as last time, and just like last time I feel that I have been cheated out of a perfect
score. Please change the question where the “correct” answer is “arid.” Thank you.

18/20. Should have got other 2
I got 13 out of 20!
Just OK! That’s pretty good! You got a decent amount right. You did a good job and demonstrated some understanding of common English words!
I got 19 out of 20!
Actually it’s 20 out of 20 – one of the answers is wrong – it should be ‘docile’ – ‘arid’ means dry!!!
4/20👍
I got 19 out of 20!
Actually there was a faulty clue given that yielded
my only misfire. As another quiz taker has pointed
out below, the clue that gave the answer “arid”
is not entirely accurate and needs to be changed.
I agree! That’s the only one I missed. There were a couple more with potentially more than one correct answer.

Mouse finger out of control on one, another I felt I chose the right word but it wasn’t. The English language has many words that can be considered synonyms but there are nuances in the usage. Sometimes the question just doesn’t quite match the answer given.
