I'm not sure which words, if any, I got wrong.

Oh....ok...I was just wondering, and I'll leave it at that. Thanks.

Your vocabulary is at the level of professional white-collars in the US!"

Given that English is not my native language, I never properly studied it, barely talk to anyone in my daily life, don't read books in English (well, only once in a blue moon), I don't believe test is accurate at all. I would expect my results to be somewhere in the low 10%, not top 7.5%. *Shrug*

Oh, just for kinks, I tried that test in Spanish.

The only word I know in Spanish is "hola"

Don't feel bad, my score in Spanish would be pretty low! I know cerveza and that's about it!
