I am 75 years old and got an A+. I am also a native speaker of English. For those just learning English, I imagine many of these are a challenge. Reading with a dictionary nearby is the best way to improve your vocabulary.
A+ for me. These were fairly simple words for native English speakers, who should know all of these words before graduating high school. Me personally, if I met an American adult who did not know these words, I would question their level of education.
21/21. The best question here is how to increase your vocabulary. The answer is READ. Get an ebook so that any word you don’t understand you can click on for the definition. Can’t afford an ebook? Read a book with a dictionary at your side. The best place to buy books is at garage and estate sales. There are sites on line that sell cheap, used books. There are lists of best mysteries, best biographies, best romances, best books on WWII, and so on, again on line. An old bookmark I got at the library (the best place to get all books, ebooks, and interlibrary loan books-make a librarian you friend, they know so much and can answer questions to find books that are just right for you) had a poem on it that started with “books I think are extra nice, through books you live not once but twice” and ended with “you’re multiplied, expanded, freed: you’re you and also what you read.”
@@Aurorakitten2012 21/21. 73 years old. If this is considered difficult, things have obviously been "dumbed down" since I was in school. Not being critical...just making an observation.
@@HassoBenSobaI think these quizzes are for people whose first language isn't English. For those of us who grew up speaking English, this is way too easy. At least it should be! 😉
Let's appreciate bro for coming up with such tricky options this makes his videos stand out since others put easier and similar options so we could get most of em right . Like if u you aren't cognizant about the meaning, there's no way you can get it right which makes it way intriguing for me
I didn't know a word! And I thought I was good at English! Great video, great explanation , your pronunciation is very clear, it made me able to follow along. Thank you Brian from the bottom of my heart.
Yeah but so many words like eke or bequith are things you rarely hear, i assume you are not native english, like i am, so you probably learned most of your english abilities via movies/TH-cam/Internet etc., so it's more likely you get used to common slang instead. I also learned "to be frank" or even "plastered" randomly from that one movie (frankly my dear, i don't give a damn) or even reddit😂 if you understood any english speaking video without any or major problems, that's great
To be honest there were some I didn't exactly know but have heard before. Just put those in sentences and picked the one that sounded right. It needs to sound right to be speak able, so I find that usually works if you have no clue. I still get them all right.
I just came upon your channel but I love your style of videos. your quizes are actually challenging, and I'm always down for improving my english. I'm a non native speaker, surprised I got 19/21
Thank you for these wonderful, thought-provoking quizzes. They help to keep my mind sharp. I love the challenge of your advanced quizzes, as I"m always looking for words, phrases and expressions that can enrich my vocabulary. Thank you. Keep up the great work.
I aced this for real. I got every question right. The filch question was the only one that was a little hard. The word filch was unfamiliar until I watched this video tonight, but I said to myself that it looks like a negative word. So, I picked B. I got that one right. It was a little difficult, but I still got it right. This quiz was very easy for the most part. My vocabulary has been extensive for a long time. A former classmate I took Honors English with back in high school many years ago called me Mr. Vocabulary because I was familiar with a plenitude of huge words back then. Thank you for making these videos! They are nice. Keep doing what you are doing. @Brian Wiles
I'm 62. Got 16/20 but I still take pride in myself 'cause my native language is Italian. I live in Italy and don’t get to find a native speaking partner, so it ain’t a breeze to level up my English. Cheers from Italy 🇮🇹
I only got Lampoon because of National Lampoon, and I made the logical connection. For filch it just rolled off the tongue better than the other options in constructed sentences. I got 21 out of 21 though.
I'm surp0rised that I got 21/21. Again, a lifelong reader & self=educated although with several years of college. Thought I'd be about average. I'm 89 years old.
❤❤❤😂I really like to watch your videos all the time, and I adore your channel. I am from Egypt and have been following you for a long time. If you find a mistake in a comment, tell me.

This is another that seems more geared to ASL students. If you are a non native speaker, getting 15 is impressive, but as a native speaker it didn't seem difficult at all.
I got an A. I missed Lampoon and Foment. When I heard Lampoon, I thought of National Lampoon's Vacation, and when I heard Foment, I mistook it for Ferment; the thing that happens to grapes too make wine.
All good words, nothing too hard though, however the levels of difficulty seem to be arbitrary because in terms of abstruseness most of the words, whether "easy" or "difficult" seem to be about the same. That said, it was a fun little exercise in stroking my already gargantuan ego. Mucho Dank Schoen Kemosabe.
The definition of ‘eke out’ that I know is: to make something last longer by being frugal. I guess that this another word that has changed or dropped one of it meanings.
These verbs were much easier than the nouns. I scored21. I've never used the word acclimate. The British word is acclimatise. Yes, with an 's' not 'z'.
Cajole is the only one that I was incorrect about. I don't think I had ever heard that spoken aloud until this video. I guess in reading it in context, it seems like it meant to criticize. I guess 57 is not too old to learn something new.
Thanks, Brian, for these stimulating quizes. I'm 84 years old and got a score of 21.
I'm glad you made this video it reminds me of my transformation from a nobody to good home, $89k biweekly and a good daughter full

Just my opinion. I believe reading also helps people learn empathy.❤
English is my second language, this is fun . I got 16 out of 21. Thank you so much for sharing.❤
A+ here. Fairly common verbs. I barely passed his other one: "If You Know These 21 Words, Your English is GENIUS LEVEL!" That one is tough.
21/21 Very easy! 74 years old.😊✅
21/21. Also found it very easy. 73 years old. 👵

Got them all right. As usual, excellent examples.
Love these English videos. They educate and entertain me at he same time
Thanks Brian I enjoy to watching this video because your pronounciation in English well and feel proud of you

Hi Brian i throughly enjoy your word treat & appreciate your collection of words. These are day today go to verbs. Many thanks 🙏
This is fun and encouraging! Thank you from Alaska!

Thanks a lot, Nora- I appreciate your feedback!
Thank you Brian, you are amazing!
I so much wanted "eke out" to mean screaming...

20/21. It would have easily been 21 if I had not second guessed myself on #19.
Wow, I got an A+, surprised myself. Thanks for the informative video sir.
I enjoyed the other 2 options to each question! !
Most of the words were new for me thanks 👍👍
I am familiar with 3/21. But the multiple choices makes it easier to guess even if the word is new to me.
I'm 62. Got 16/20 but I still take pride in myself 'cause my native language is Italian. I live in Italy and don’t get to find a native speaking partner, so it ain’t a breeze to level up my English. Cheers from Italy 🇮🇹

Got 20/21 (never heard of eke) and, yes, I did guess on # 19 but I'll count that as a win 😏
Not a native, 78 years old, and did 19/21. Better next year.
I only got Lampoon because of National Lampoon, and I made the logical connection. For filch it just rolled off the tongue better than the other options in constructed sentences. I got 21 out of 21 though.

Nice quiz, 20/21 for a solid A, I got cajole wrong; A native American English speaker, I've usually een cajole to mean "make fun of someone".
It has been helpful video😊

Hi I am from India. Got 21/21
The definition of ‘eke out’ that I know is: to make something last longer by being frugal. I guess that this another word that has changed or dropped one of it meanings.
Back in elementary school I sometimes had the verb's but now I'm all right with the verb.
i'm glad i got all 21 right without any effort, because i was shaken by getting 2 of the verbs wrong
Got 21. Not very difficult but I enjoyed the challenge.
This one felt easy. 20/21. I faltered on foment.
Without throwing out some random answers and getting them correctly, I only know “assume” and “forfeit”; however, I got 6.5 on ielts💀
Had no insight for the foment word. 20/21 is not bad though
Love this!
I imagine that someone with a good education and who reads widely would ace this quiz, as did I.
Bro just humbled me
Wonderful
I earned 21 out of 21. I should get a perfect score, because I was in school for 24 long years to become a surgeon. Doctor George Whitehead
These verbs were much easier than the nouns. I scored21. I've never used the word acclimate. The British word is acclimatise. Yes, with an 's' not 'z'.

😂😂😂😂😅
20 out of 21. English is my second language.
This was my third quiz and I almost got them all, but then came question 19 so I had to settle for 20 right answers.
That was much easier than some of the other ones.

Got A+ All correct.
Funny thing my speech professors said about preparing speeches. We make assumptions about their beliefs and values.
I only got 16 of 21 on a much harder quiz , so i came here and got 21/21 . Blackjack!
I know it's sad that I knew only one word
But the really sad thing that I didn't understand choices nether 😢
