Vocabulary test ... and in a very good cause!

Does anyone find this interesting? What score do you achieve?

Ahh - is there an end? I thought that it was going on and on. I got to 36, I think.

I must admit that I did cheat a bit by giving the answer to some of the questions, by the proccess of eliminating what I knew wasn't correct

It just goes on and on. So far I've donated 3840 grains of rice and my vocab level is 28. (I'm not cheating, the answers are easy if you think about them for a while before answering)

I'm pretty good at vocab, but I'm wondering how long this goes on for. I've been clicking answers for a good half hour!

How'd you find this Janet it's really good?

4410 grains of rice - vocab level 47 ... and I am exhausted - does it never end

... and yes, I led a sad life as a teenager buying books such as Building your Vocabulary

I reckon the Greek & Latin scholars amongst us have had a field day

Update: 5820 grains, vocab down to 45 HELP - how do you stop!!

Now - 6170 & vocab score of 50 ... time to quit while ahead
