    Boost your vocabulary and feed the hungry

    All for free. This is a fun site and the difficulty of words adjusts to your vocabulary level. I starting hitting my natural ceiling around level 32. I've never been much of a wordsmith.

    All models are wrong. Some of them are useful.

    I teamed up with my teenage daughter and we made it to 46, before slipping.

    I got to 46 (and 310 grains of rice) and stopped.

    Like oneupper, many of the words I didn't really know. But breaking them down and then looking at the potential answers, I figured out many of them.

    Ditto. (That means "me too" - 10 more grains of rice.)
