Monday Quiz Challenge | End of the month edition

Each week, Talk Wordy to Me challenges readers to beat the word nerd in a quiz challenge and post their scores in the comments.

Because I’m having trouble finding good quizzes every week, and because I’m lazy, I am going to start using the Etymologic quiz on the last Monday of each month. It’s really good, and it has a lot of questions that are randomly asked. I’ve only had a repeat question once as far as I can remember, and I play around with this quiz frequently.

Here’s the quiz. I scored a 7 out of 10 this time.

  1. Ha! Eight! Beat you for once…

    Not that I’m competitive or anything.

  2. 7 of 10. (Although, I much prefer Seven of Nine.)

  3. I only got 6. I’m slipping.

  4. Just in case you didn’t know: John McIntyre got laid off, or forcibly retired, or whatever, from the Baltimore Sun last month.

    He has a blog, though:
