How many words do you know or think you know?

What is the size of your vocabulary?

It was something asked in a blog and it got me thinking.

My best guess was about 5,000 - 6,000 and I though that would be enough to see me through life quite easily. Imagine my surprise to find that adult native English speakers have something like 20,000-35,000 words. https://wordcounter.io/blog/how-many-wo ... rson-know/

Where on earth do I store them all?

Me too!!! I found old ones (I've not seen them) on Dave, so was happy while the football was on
