Someone shared this with me yesterday - I have shared it with the younger ones in my house, who have tested their knowledge of word meanings against it, with varying scores... 

If you get ten mins, try it out - no pressure to share your scores here, of course... But knowing how FFF our regulars and some newcomers are, well, I guess the gauntlet could be thrown down💪

Not telling you my (genuine attempt!) score just yet, let you make your mind up if it is baloney, rigged or chance. 

The third screen asks for demographic info - if you have honestly answered, I think they would appreciate the info too, if you care to enter it. 

Have fun!

I just took the test, allowing a little more thought-time - ended up at the top-end of the spectrum too.

 

Interesting website, especially their analysis of data collected:

I'm having to restrain my language today - teaching support for my daughter today is pushing me to and beyond my limits...

Not at all.

Had to walk away several times otherwise she would hear lots of language she is too young for at the moment!

Trying something different today to see how we get on.

Not going to hold my breath as not much change so far...
