Don't care too much for percentile and age stats at the end.. clearly doesn't represent general pop.
What IS interesting tho, from a language learners perspective, is the vocab size estimation. A metric a lot of us use as a rough benchmark of vocab needed for fluency in a foreign language is 10,000words.
Comparing this with what an educated adult native speaker knows in their own language (using my own truthful score of 24k) is pretty interesting.
Would love to have something like this to quickly gauge my vocab in other languages!
I agree: the test seems to correctly estimate vocabulary size, but is incorrect in calculating percentile.
I got 12900 (English is my second language) and it seems to be about accurate. I also feel that I'm fluent in English, and it confirms that 10000 words is sufficient for fluency.
The test is also missing professional lingo: where are such words as SQL, lisp, ai, startup, PG, HN and other that we all know so well?
