how smart are you?

[summerdays]

17/20 got my metaphors and similies etc mixed up

 

[Bokonon]

20/20 demonstrating that I have some knowledge of what words mean, how they are spelt and how stuff should be punctuated. A basic word processor has the same abilities (spell check, grammar check, dictionary) but that doesn't make it smart.

I always get accommodation wrong.

That's why I live in digs!

I got 19. Messed up on the one where the thing that was missing was a hyphen.

Me too, Maz. We thought it was about a very tall, missing male sibling, didn't we?

 

[Crackle]

19 Mixed up me metaphors and similies, which came in really handy as I then knew them to help no.1 son with his homework: Splendid.

Eyes down for maths next one.

20

20. Proove indeed that I am smrt.

 

[Radius]

20, but the hyphen thing nearly got me. Slightly unfair methinks.

 

[Flying_Monkey]

20.

I don't think this tests whether you are 'smart', it's how good a grasp of grammar, syntax, spelling, etc you have.

David Beckham being idle on a golf coarse made me smile.

Same here. It´s a test of English language education not intelligence.

 

[Fab Foodie]

18/20, I'm happy with that.

Catholic school with scary nuns

Yes, there are websites specialising in that sort of thing, so I'm told..

The particular smilie you used is probably appropriate too, so I'm told..

20. Bit too easy, I thought. I should be brought down to earth by the maths test next week though.

Probably not as it was dated Sept 15th 2005!

 

[Rhythm Thief]

Probably not as it was dated 2005!

I missed that. It seemed familiar though, I must have done it before.
