How many words do you know

Interesting little test that estimates how many (English language) words you know.

I'll be honest: I only know 26,600. Roughly as literate as the average fence post. :P

I crashed the site :(

Probably all of us did.

I pulled the link off of a much larger forum so maybe, all involved, have created an unintentional denial-of-service attack. :O

Your total vocabulary size is estimated to be:
10,000 words.

If 26,000 is being as literate as the average fence post, then I guess 10,000 is like a nail hammered into that fence post :-(

And now I'd better shut up...

Anything much beyond 10,000 words generally only comes from living abroad in an English-speaking country for a significant period of time, or else spending tremendous amounts of one's own time exposed to English media (books, sitcoms, movies, etc.).

26,600 words...Not very good, CRAP!

Only 32,000 :-)
