Polish vocabulary test
Five words from each level. Afterwards you see what share of these 2779 words you probably know — as a range, not as a neat number. Nothing is stored and nothing is sent.
What this test measures — and what it does not
It measures this vocabulary, not Polish as a whole. If you know a lot of specialist vocabulary that is missing here, you will come out worse than you are. A figure like “you know so many Polish words” is something this site could not back up — the 2779 here it can.
It does not count towards your progress. It is a measurement, not an exercise: measuring would otherwise change what is measured. The words in the test would drop into the first Leitner box and be due tomorrow.
Five questions per level is not many, which is why the result is a range and not a number. It uses the 95 % Wilson interval — with small samples the share is often 0 or 1, and that is exactly where the usual calculation returns limits outside 0 and 100 %.
