    21/21. The best question here is how to increase your vocabulary. The answer is READ. Get an ebook so that any word you don’t understand you can click on for the definition. Can’t afford an ebook? Read a book with a dictionary at your side. The best place to buy books is at garage and estate sales. There are sites on line that sell cheap, used books. There are lists of best mysteries, best biographies, best romances, best books on WWII, and so on, again on line. An old bookmark I got at the library (the best place to get all books, ebooks, and interlibrary loan books-make a librarian you friend, they know so much and can ask questions to find books that are just right for you) had a poem on it that started with “books I think are extra nice, through books you live not once but twice” and ended with “you’re multiplied, expanded, freed: you’re you and also what you read.”

    A+ for me. These were fairly simple words for native English speakers, who should know all of these words before graduating high school. Me personally, if I met an American adult who did not know these words, I would question their level of education.

      @lmaopew Місяць тому +1

      Yeah but so many words like eke or bequith are things you rarely hear, i assume you are not native english, like i am, so you probably learned most of your english abilities via movies/UA-cam/Internet etc., so it's more likely you get used to common slang instead. I also learned "to be frank" or even "plastered" randomly from that one movie (frankly my dear, i don't give a damn) or even reddit😂 if you understood any english speaking video without any or major problems, that's great

      To be honest there were some I didn't exactly know but have heard before. Just put those in sentences and picked the one that sounded right. It needs to sound right to be speak able, so I find that usually works if you have no clue. I still get them all right.

    I aced this for real. I got every question right. The filch question was the only one that was a little hard. The word filch was unfamiliar until I watched this video tonight, but I said to myself that it looks like a negative word. So, I picked B. I got that one right. It was a little difficult, but I still got it right. This quiz was very easy for the most part. My vocabulary has been extensive for a long time. A former classmate I took Honors English with back in high school many years ago called me Mr. Vocabulary because I was familiar with a plenitude of huge words back then. Thank you for making these videos! They are nice. Keep doing what you are doing. @Brian Wiles

    All good words, nothing too hard though, however the levels of difficulty seem to be arbitrary because in terms of abstruseness most of the words, whether "easy" or "difficult" seem to be about the same. That said, it was a fun little exercise in stroking my already gargantuan ego. Mucho Dank Schoen Kemosabe.

      I need to disagree with you. "Acclimate" is most assuredly a word used outside of the US. It is used in the UK and in South Africa and probably elsewhere too. Besides meaning the same as acclimatize, it has 1) a technical use: Respond physiologically to a change in an environmental factor under controlled conditions, and 2) a botanical/Horticultural use: eg: Harden off (a plant).
