it is quite a bit of fun to guess the meaning of some difficult words based on the root stem ( especially around vocabulary level 34-36 for me ) .

How high a vocabulary level have you all reached?

I was at 42 . Now that it is 'real' I will strive for better.
For many of those poor ones a grain of rice is worth more than a grain of gold!
