Die Daten stammen von a prüfen Ich habe eine Funktion entwickelt, die den rezeptiven Wortschatz misst – die Anzahl der Wörter, die eine Person erkennt (aber nicht unbedingt verwendet). Dadurch werden alle – vom Schüler, der gerade mit dem Englischlernen begonnen hat, bis zum gebildeten Muttersprachler – auf die gleiche Skala gestellt. Bei den Einheiten handelt es sich um Wortfamilien (daher zählen „Limit“, „Limited“ und „Limitless“ als eine einzige Einheit). Die Benutzer gaben ihre GER-Werte selbst an.

    Es ist beeindruckend zu sehen, wie viel man lernen muss, um von Level zu Level voranzukommen und möglicherweise den nativen Bereich zu erreichen.

    1. I feel like part of the spread has to do with the original language of the user.

      Someone who natively speaks a Germanic or Latin language is going to probably know quite a lot of Germanic and Latin words, respectively. Although their overall grasp of the language might not be great. Conversely someone from an unrelated language might need to have studied for a long time to match the vocab depth, but would have a much better grasp of other areas.

    2. Took the test. It was really interesting. A few times it made me question my sanity because of the fake words.

      It correctly identified me as a native speaker.

      Phew, I have native level English!

      Nice test – will it be available in other languages?

      Cool test and data! One observation: the output word count from the test is unreadable when on dark mode (Android, Firefox). The dark blue text is almost the same as the dark grey background

      Re: Your test. Yes, I do know the meaning of the word enceinte. It just doesn’t happen to be English. :p

      Can you fix the German test? It always freezes on the last word and I desperately need to know how bad I am at German.

      Also thank you, lots of fun!

      what if they have a native vocabulary but heavy accent or makes grammar mistakes?

      I’m glad I scored above the median (?) native speaker, because I’m pretty sure I’d do a lot worse in my native language

    9. The test is really well made. I’m C1 it seems. There are so many words that I’ve read and heard countless times, but don’t know the exact meaning of. For example, I will typically understand a sentence with words like „embellish“ or „egregious“ in it without really knowing the word, and so I don’t bother looking it up. Maybe I should bother.

      Interesting. I am honestly surprised that the distribution curve isn’t larger for native speakers. Perhaps that means it isn’t so hard to raise someone’s reading level. I am at 90th percentile despite only knowing 23.5% more words than the average person.
