Each week, Talk Wordy to Me challenges readers to beat the word nerd in a quiz challenge and post their scores in the comments below.
This week, a very tough, longish quiz that asks you to look at 200 word pairs and pick if their meanings are the same or opposite. It took me about 10 minutes to get through it.
Here’s the quiz. I got a 156 out of 200, and feel very good about that. A bunch of the words were brand-new to me.
I felt like the words in 67 were more like 90 degrees out from each other rather than same or opposite.
I got 184.
They were often not really “same” but in the same general domain, I agree.
184! Awesome.
I got 149- not genius level or anything, but I thought it was a pretty decent showing.
