I got 17 out of 18!
I got tripped up by the homo- terms. Also, 44% through the quiz there is a question about terms made from a combination of parts of words in a phrase, such as radar or . The answer given was “acronym” but it is misleading. An acronym is a combination of letters that are spoken as a complete word, such as radar or NATO. More frequently, however, the letters cannot be easily said as a complete word, such as CIA or AI. These are called “initialisms.” Both acronyms and initialisms are types of abbreviations.
9/18 Only just half, hate these quizzes don’t know why I did it. Sure I never learnt this stuff at school or can’t remember!!!

You know your stuff when it comes to all the different kinds of word play – and there is a wide, wide variety as you’ve seen here.
Two of my mistakes came from words that I had never heard before. Live and learn, eh.

6/18 Terrible, don’t use these words or if I do don’t know it. Can’t remember learning about them in school altho it’s a very long time ago. Have heard of most of them just didn’t know what they meant, stupid, yes I probably am could I care less NO.
6 / 18 33% I`ve spoken the English language for 63 years, but I don`t know the English Terminology.

I’m unable to complete this quiz due to a lot of the questions having the upper portion cut off and not being able to be seen!! ☹️
