Free Rice: Increase your vocabulary while you feed the hungry

<< < (3/3)

Ampa:
Nobody has mentioned the vocab level that they managed to reach / maintain - perhaps this is a taboo area as it could be condoned as showing off or being elitist.

I have always liked words, sometimes play word-games, do crosswords, and am a writer - I achieved vocab level 42, but couldn't maintain it for more than a few words at a time.

Plus had lots of fun, and gave away some rice!

Lashiec:
I got that 42 level as well, but plummeted after a while to 36, and couldn't get higher than 38 afterwards. The only thing that bugs me about the game is that it seems to have a limited amount of words for you to define, and they get repeated after some time playing, but it was a couple of weeks since I played, so it could have go for the better in that area.

tomos:
I get up to 43 once (briefly)
seem to be able to hold 42 for a while though

I have a friend who reads a lot
(and says that when growing up her family used a lot of archaic words)
she reached 46 - and stayed there a while too  :up:
have to ask her can she remember any of the words -
I didnt recognise a lot of them & was working on on educated/intuitive guess's
(is it a noun or a...)

app103:
I seem to average between 37 & 40.

I think the repetition of words is a good thing, considering that would encourage you to remember them, and maybe even begin using them. That is part of it's educational vocabulary building value.
