How the test works

01

Choose how many words to test

Choose how many words to check before you begin. Testing more words gives us more information for the estimate.

02

Mark familiar words

Choose only words whose meaning you understand without a hint.

03

See your result

Get an estimated vocabulary level and see which words you may want to review.

What the result means

This is an estimate of passive vocabulary: words you recognise when reading. It does not assess speaking, grammar or listening and cannot replace a language exam. The A1–C2 levels provide a guide to the difficulty of words you know.

Where the words come from

The English words are selected from Cambridge English lists. Questions cover a range of difficulties, from basic to advanced vocabulary.

Questions about the test

Is the test free?

Yes. You can take the test and see your result without paying or signing up.

How long does it take?

It depends on how many words you choose. A short test takes a few minutes; a more detailed one takes longer.

Is this an official exam?

No. The result estimates your vocabulary level and is not a language certificate.
