I’m a retired English teacher and have always been interested in vocabulary.
I got 5 out of 15 – 33%
You did not do so well on this quiz but that’s alright. We assume you don’t go around with a dictionary all day, so we don’t blame you for missing a few tough words! Take a breather and try again when you have the chance!
They were all guesses, I don`t use big words when I talk, just good old plain English.
29 / 10 / 25
11/15 Bit better than last time certainly not a word wizard like it says.
9/15 much harder this one, messed up on some undecided between couple of options and of course picked wrong one, Doh, numpty!
You got 7 out of 15!
