Team Me: Foxing Around

[coldrainwater]

In order to be able to "count the cards" you should be able to recognize a sufficient number of real words. If you can, please try the Italian test. I would like to gage the cognate effect (English + Spanish).

Definitely interesting to faceoff English + Spanish vs. Italian. I took the Italian test 10 times and averaged 35.6%.
STDEV = 5.91

I felt like I was definitely getting used to some of the morphology after repeated iterations. I didn't look at the explanations provided at the end of each exam.

Hai detto SÌ al 46% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 13% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 46% - 13% = 33%.
Hai detto SÌ al 37% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 0% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 37% - 0% = 37%.
Hai detto SÌ al 37% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 13% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 37% - 13% = 24%.
Hai detto SÌ al 40% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 10% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 40% - 10% = 30%.
Hai detto SÌ al 51% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 7% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 51% - 7% = 44%.
Hai detto SÌ al 46% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 10% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 46% - 10% = 36%.
Hai detto SÌ al 56% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 17% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 56% - 17% = 39%.
Hai detto SÌ al 43% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 0% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 43% - 0% = 43%.
Hai detto SÌ al 47% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 13% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 47% - 13% = 34%.
Hai detto SÌ al 39% delle parole esistenti - Hai detto SÌ al 3% delle non-parole - Questo ti da un punteggio di 39% - 3% = 36%.

Thanks. I assume you're referring to these tests:

Which conclusion do the test results allow?

"The results achieved on the vocabulary tests allow conclusions as to participants' reading proficiency level as laid down in the CEFR. Successful completion of levels 1000 and 2000 indicates a reading level of A2. Knowledge of the most frequent 3000 words suggests a reading level of B1. Completing all five levels implies a reading level of B2.

Completing all five levels implies a reading level of B2.

Yep, this one; it was the easiest.

I am most satisfied with this result, considering my Italian studies consist almost entirely of watching TV and reading a handful of books. Time to put my Italian anki deck in run-off mode!

Test your receptive vocabulary in Portuguese.
How many of the 5000 most frequent Portuguese words do you know?

For each item you answer correctly you are awarded one point. If you enter a wrong answer or leave a blank you are not awarded any points. For each level (1000 most frequent words, 2000 most frequent words etc.) you can reach a maximum of 30 points.

If you reach a minimum of 80%, that is 24 points or more for one level, you’ve successfully completed that level. Completing all five levels implies a reading level of B2.

1 29/30
2 30/30
3 25/30
4 29/30
5 24/30

137/150

This, on the other hand, is vexing. But not a surprise. Russian doesn't like me. This is why I turned to flash cards and frequency lists (whether they are going to help remains to be seen).

[reineke]

I passed all the five German levels (total score: 140/150). Receptive voc. only. A fantastic result given the amount of noise and disruption here. I apparently left some questions unanswered.

Ваш пассивный словарный запас — 87000 слов.

Ваш индекс честности — 90%. Вы отметили следующие ненастоящие слова: амбивильный. Несмотря на это, вы прошли большую часть проверок, и результатам теста можно доверять.

Интересно сравнить с результатами других?

Начнем с распределения результатов всех, кто прошел тест. Чем выше кривая — тем больше людей имеют соответствующий словарный запас. Площадь закрашенной области пропорциональна доле респондентов, словарный запас которых меньше, чем у вас, незакрашенной — доле тех, у кого словарный запас больше вашего. Ваш результат лучше, чем у 85% опрошенных.

Что делать, чтобы улучшить свой словарный запас? Самый очевидный способ — больше читать. Можно учить иностранные языки — в русском очень много заимствований и общих слов с другими языками. Для набора специальной лексики помогает заниматься любыми хобби. Главное — делать или изучать что-то новое, тогда словарный запас будет обогащаться сам собой. Конечно, неплохо бы еще иметь хорошие память и внимание. Для этого попробуйте позаниматься на Викиуме — онлайн-сервисе для улучшения производительности мозга и развития познавательных функций. Это полезно, интересно и бесплатно.

Yay for the last test. Finally one I can pass in French.
Here is my italien one:

Hai detto SÌ al 54% delle parole esistenti.

Hai detto SÌ al 13% delle non-parole.

Questo ti da un punteggio di 54% - 13% = 41%.

Questo è un livello di competenza medio.

But now I feel like I should take it 9 more times and calculate the standard deviation like Coldrainwater did... Showoff :-p
