alexpgpI don't generally go for "tests," but figured I'd try one that purported to assess my Russian vocabulary chops. The results?
Пройти "Тест на определение словарного запаса" здесь
A score of 25 out of 35 would've netted me a solid "C" back in junior high, so I'm not sure why the testing site assessed my result as "terrific" (other than, perhaps, not to hurt my feelings).
While it may be tempting to conclude "Not bad for a non-native speaker!", I must admit I was greatly aided by the large number of cognates used in the test (e.g., экстравагантный / ekstravagantniy, респектабельный / respektabelniy).
* * * I've bagged nearly 6,500 target words for the day, with just over 5,000 source words left for tomorrow, making tomorrow a somewhat easier day than today has been. This is a good thing, as my eyeballs are about ready to jump out of my head and beat me to death with anything within, um, view.
Cheers...
