Currently at 1000 level 41.
It's funny how you can find synonyms yet not really understand what either one means [:0][:I][B)]

That's impressive, ChuckU and hafilax. Can't seem to get past 41 (but donated a lot of rice trying!) Then again, English is my second language. Wonder if they have a Dutch version of this...

I read in an article about this initiative, that the highest level one can attain is 50
...but few people attain it...
highest level I've attained is 44
it helps to know a few other languages, as some of the words in the test are 'borrowed' or have roots from French, Greek, German, Latin, etc...

I got up to level 47 very, very briefly, I donated a heck of a lot of rice, though!
I've spread this link around. I adore it when the mighty powers of the internet are harnessed for good.

The words get damn hard after 49! This word stumped me and I was afraid to continue [8]
