Would You Know If You Received 👍 Praise or 👎 Criticism?

Nobody enjoys getting criticism and being told that something about them or what they are doing is not good. With today's interconnected online world, the opportunities to receive criticism are greater than ever, with unpleasant effects on our mental well-being. To make things worse, there are people who seem to build their personality around hating stuff and complaining about things they don't like just because they want to appear interesting or cool.

This isn't to say that criticism is not necessary. Criticism, when done constructively, is a very valid tool that helps people improve. Receiving useful criticism can be as beneficial as being showered by heartfelt praise from our loved ones. It's all about knowing what to do with the feedback that others may have for us.

This quiz will test your language prowess on whether you can tell if each word signifies praise or some form of criticism. The next time you come across any of such words, hopefully you would know whether it's something positive or negative.
