so it goes

“We learned in the past, but we are not a result of that. We suffered in the past, loved in the past, cried and laughed in the past, but that’s of no use to the present. The present has its challenges, its good and bad side. We can neither blame nor be grateful to the past for what is happening now. Each new experience of love has nothing whatsoever to do with past experiences. It’s always new.” — Aleph, Paulo Coelho

Not so good, but since the most common vocabulary size for non-native English spearkes is from 2,500–9,000 words, at least I’m in the average.

Test Your Vocabulary: how many words do you know?

Mmmh. I got something within the range of native speakers, but I suspect it might be because a lot of the “fancier” words are either directly taken from French vocabulary or a very clear adaptation of French words…

I don’t know what the average is?

30,400

But I blame RPing and Vampire: The Masquerade.

31500

represent

33,600. I’m pleasantly surprised.

27,000 words.

hmm needs some work.

16,300

Despite not being nearly good enough, still a motherfucking success if you ask me

29,300

some of those words were like wtf is that, wtf is this, wtf is going on

24,200… hm….

38,000

yep.

25,400

I was really proud of that too considering I’m nto a native speaker and all, and then looking at the OPs, but then you guys come in with your 29,300 and 38,000 and shit

 22,700. For the amount that I read I feel like this is shameful… Since I am a native speaker… Maybe I should start looking up words more…
