Will I ever know all the English in the world. I seem to begin and end in blank the more I search. English seems to grow by the day. It has associated other languages into it and those taking it as a second language find it hard.
Maybe you are better of. Take this quiz and find out. Bon voyage.

Halfling here…good quiz 🙂 I learned something new today 🙂
Am grateful to you. You made me love to make quizzes
Haha not a problem…thanks
Welcome
Got a 3 out of 10 on the first attempt. Got 6 out of 10 on second try. Hard quiz. Didn”t know a lot of the words.
Nice attempt. Trying and learning is what I get here
10 out of 10.
Tell me the trick you use to get even those with wrong answers or badly constructed one right.
Haha he’s a very pure genius maybe. 🙂
Yeah. He cracks all
4 guesses, tough quiz for me.
A good trial too
Thank you for your time
8/10 – I never heard of that long phobia before! But you have made two mistakes in the first question (tryist>tryst and who>what). Fun quiz 🙂
The spelling was an oversight but ‘who’ was intentional. Ha ha ha
i got `10/10 send me compliments friends
You really needs them
That is great
6 correct here, and English is my first language..ugh..
We all learn always
7/10. Some of these words are quite a mouthful. Great quiz except#1 should be What’s a tryst?
I wanted to confuse a bit my friend. Did you fall for the trap?
9/10 Couldn’t get the last one, the others were fairly easy for me
Bravo! Congrats
got 6 out of 10 right!
Great work. You did qell
9/10 – it would have been 10 if you’d spelt the word “tryst” correctly in question 1!
Sorry about that my friend. Congrats on getting 9
