Thanks for taking the test! Based on over 200,000 participations so far, we've got some initial statistics already. Most Native English adult speakers who have taken the test fall in the range 20,000–35,000 words.

And for foreign learners of English, we've found that the most common vocabulary size is from 2,500–9,000 words.

13,700 words
Man, some freaky deaky words I never heard before in many years of speaking english

13,700 huh? not bad for a non-native speaker.

EDIT: I just took it and scored 26,200.

Btw, Don't feel bad Andrew, there were some weird words that I've never seen before either.

EDIT #2: according to this chart, http://testyourvocab.com/blog/2011-07-25-New-results-for-native-speakers.php#mainchartNative

the average for a native 18 year old is 22,777 which means I'm above average.

However, note that these average vocabulary sizes of our
respondents are significantly higher than those of the overall
population at large. How do we know this? Because our American
participants' self-reported verbal SAT scores hover at around a
constant 700 (out of 800 maximum) at all applicable age levels,
while the median score of SAT test-takers is only

500. And these test-takers themselves are a more educated subset
of the American population as a whole. To put things in perspective,
it has been estimated that if the whole US population took the verbal SAT,
it would have a median verbal score of around
350.
Our average respondent's verbal SAT score of 700 places him or her
in the 95th percentile among SAT takers,
and above the 99th percentile in the American population as a whole.
This means that the average American's vocabulary size would be
significantly lower than the chart above shows.

I've never taken the SAT test btw, so I don't know what my score would be.

lol Nab 26.200

OK waiting for other nabs

I'm far to lazy to waste my time checking all those boxes, I got to the second page and lost interest ;x

Seriously, they should have an option to check all boxes so you can just untick the couple you don't know..

You lazy
There is nothing to do, 2nd page is the last, on 3rd you'll see your result

I scored 45.000... now flag me as cheater !

By the way, many words i found were more "italian" then "english", i'm not sure english vocabulary contain voices like "verdure" or "imbroglio"! Maybe test fail?

lol nab, of course English has those words. You were supposed to check words only if you know the English definition, not Italian.

Example, verdure;

1 : the greenness of growing vegetation; also : such vegetation itself

2
: a condition of health and vigor

http://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/verdure

Example 2, imbroglio;

1
: a confused mass

2
a : an intricate or complicated situation (as in a drama or novel) b : an acutely painful or embarrassing misunderstanding c : a violently confused or bitterly complicated altercation : embroilment d : scandal 3a imbroglio>

Even if you only selected 90% of the first page you would still get a score of 21,000, I find it hard to believe you don't know that many words, even if your english is not so good ;l
