It must be lying, my English is not that good :-)

You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go!
 
I was bored...

I'm a genius too :)

The other tests offered on the results page look more than a little dodgy to me. I'll leave those alone!

Ah - so if our results can be attributed to age, that could explain my high score (although not Christine's !)

I think the two I got wrong were

Hung (I was unsure of the different between hung and hanged....I know now...after reading the answer key),

and She complained to whomever would listen. I thought it was either whoever, or both.
 

:clap:

'They' (particularly the BBC) keep telling us that language must evolve and that many of us old folk should adapt and modernise ! Husband and I 'collect' mis-pronunciations from the radio and have almost as many of them as photographs !

Both should be an acceptable answer there. The insistence on 'whomever' ie confined to grammar books and is about as dated as spelling 'lens' 'lens'.

Of course I knew they would only accept 'whomever' so I answererd incorrectly to get the points. :lol:

Your test results are extremely interesting. Though your test scores in the beginner, intermediate, and expert levels weren't very high, you got at least 75% of the advanced level questions correct. Possibly you guessed very well in the advanced level section? I don't know what else to say. You puzzle me immensely. But.... :bang::bang::shrug::suspect:
