If you can pass this word quiz it means you have really good English. Having a large vocabulary is incredibly important if you want to be able to express yourself descriptively and accurately. Imagine having too small of a vocabulary to be able to express what you are thinking or feeling. Many people experience that every day.
While some people will belittle others for using big words because they think the person is only doing it to sound smart, those with large vocabularies know that it is important to always be learning new words. Many people stop learning new words when they leave school, foolishly thinking that their education in life is over. Our education is never over and you should never stop learning new things. The more words you know, the better you can express yourself and the less often you find yourself in frustrating miscommunications. So if you think you have a good grasp on the English language and know lots of important words, then you will want to take this quiz and see how well you do.
