I just found a site I had never seen before and it has some very unusual words. It is a multiple choice test and the object is to give the correct definition for the words (there are 12, at least that is how many there were when I took the quiz). I enjoyed it.

I could almost see my brain exploding - 67p/c.

Zero of those words are in my working vocabulary, nor will they ever be.

Thank you - that was fun. I didn't realize it was timed at first, but I got all of the ones I answered.

I had never seen most of those words but could figure some out from context and roots. Got lucky with some guesses and I think I only missed two.
