NIce! Thanks for this. I did not actually know that you can virtually test your language skills. It is also a great thing that it is available in different languages. Well, thank you for this link. Will probably have it saved for future reference.

I seem to get from around 20-30K words from the French test, despite having 60K known words. The problem seems to be that I´m bad at picking the right words to fit into the sentences, even when I understand all or just about all the words in the sentence and the options to put in. I often feel more than one of the available words fit into the sentence and perhaps that comes from having a large vocabulary but a lacking sense of grammar and the structure of sentences.

There is a really annoying thing that if everything gets highlighted and you click at a seemingly random place to make the highlighting go away, it will think you picked a word. Got 3 "wrong" answers so far, just because of this.

Starting with 'for ennglish speakers; is a geat movve. It is not my first language but it is the first we learn aside from our own language.

Thank you very much!

It will be available to test English for Romanian speakers ?

Is the test not available in Hindi?

Great efforts but where is Arabic.

33200 words in French. About right.

Will any other languages be added to this? It has been almost 3 years and it looks as if no new languages have been added. I study Chinese (French and Spanish are secondary right now) and would love to see where I stand in a couple of months. Are there any plans to add to these languages?

Hi! Could you please tell me which is the highest level which can be obtained in the French test? Thank you in advance!

No test for Turkish people :-(

I did the English test and enjoyed it. Still, there's one thing I don't understand: why did I got an advanced 5 level with 25000 known words, when people with the same number of known words are only granted an advanced 1 level ?

Maybe is that because I answered more difficult questions?

I wish I could take an Italian test too, just to see if ho dimenticato tutto.

Hm...

Lyx wrote that "and this test is meant to be fun" and for that's it's really great! Especially as I have to take the Spanish test in English and have to translate twice.

But ... I'm a raw beginner at Spanish, and I mean raw beginner. Yet the test, taken three times, tells me I know 6000, 1700 and 6000 words respectively. :-0

Great to have this function. Is there a rough approximation of how the LingQ proficiency levels correspond to the European Framework levels?

I received Advanced 1 and 25,000 words, which is 10 times my actual known word count. I know my known word count is underestimated because I never actively change my recognised unknown words to known, but this still seems a huge discrepancy?

Once it gets refined I'm sure it will be a useful gauge in helping smooth out some of the idiosyncratic influences of how different learners define/create known words.

This is really awesome!!!

However, I'm wondering how high the test goes. According to Avatar growth on LingQ, 32,500 words are needed to "complete" Advanced Level 2 and reach Advanced Level 3. That's where I'm headed now. Since I was only moving 'active' words to "Known" status, I know I know more words than my official LingQ word count suggests.

However, the test results show I'm at "Advanced Level 5," but still at 32,500 words (Advanced Level 3). Lykke, does the test "top out" at 32,500? Thanks again!

It's a good test as far as it goes. I did better than I expected, (Advanced 4 - 32,500 words ) Hablo y escribo bien pero no entiendo mucho cuando las personas hispanicas hablan a mi. I speak and write pretty well, but when spanish speaking people talk to me I don't understand a lot.

Took the test for German. Apparently I know 37500 words (!!!) :-0

ohh -_- i need for Arabic speakers ,, by the way thank you ,, it's good step

Hello Lux,

I have a little problem, I can't share my result on wall and with my friend...

I finnished the test, click on share but nothing happens.

Thank you in advance!

Stay good, Cordially,

Vladimir

For me, the test indicates this:

Intermédiaire 2

You know approximately 10000 words!

From 2400 words to 10000!

GREAT!

Nice new addition to the web site. Many people ask in the forum about their level. I did the test for Russian and it gave an accurate result. Perhaps adding a "not sure" answer will give more accurate results (remove points from guessing).

Terrific idea! I am interested in Italian. Thanks!

It is a nice test, perhaps is too short.

I just did and I got intermediate 1 (5000 words) for English and advanced 1 (22000 words) for Portuguese. By the way, both results are wrong. I found that some questions were a bit strange, there were even one that 3 out of 5 answers were indeed correct for Portuguese.

I like how when I take the Spanish test as an English native speaker, I get 32500 known words, but when I take the English test as a Spanish speaker, I only get 17000. o.O

Intermediate 1 for German for me. Es war mein lieblings fach in der schule aber.....that was 30 years ago. It estimated 7,000 words which is a little ambitious for me after 30 years but maybe if I studies for a few months I'd get back to that level.

Good fun though, thanks.

Really good idea, it would be nice to have this for Japanese and other languages indeed ! However I found some questions to be a bit weird : In addition to English I also did test my French (my mother tongue) as if I was a native English speaker and even if I made no mistakes, sometimes the questions felt a bit odd and unnatural.

Anyway I got an adv1 in English :-)

Good initiative !

Hmmm,... Captivating:) I just finished English language test for Spanish language speakers, and I've got only 3 mistakes:)

Took the test in French-- that was fun.

It says i know 22,000 words and that i am at about advanced 1. This sounds about right (i would put me one step lower perhaps intermediate because i guessed at some of the grammar).

This tests reminds me of something i already know-- I need to make more words known (i mainly LingQ and rarely put a word as known, even cognates). And occassional grammar work would be somewhat beneficial.

Nothing for me to use :(

No Italian. Not even English :(
