Verbal Analogies Test

Although you may think of relationships as something that exists between people, relationships can exist between words too. The verbal analogies test requires you to use your understanding of the relationship between two given words and then apply that relationship to complete another word pair.

A word may be related to another word for many reasons, like it being its antonym or synonym, but don’t worry, you won’t be given a pair that is as controversial as pineapple and pizza. Do you want to know more about your ability to recognize and use associations?

Word Swap Test

Word swap tests are tasks that swap words in order to evaluate your understanding of language in context. If the above sentence were to be in the test, it might read as, “Word swap tests are tasks your swap words in order to evaluate that understanding of language in context.” If that sentence made you frown at your screen in confusion, you might be surprised that the reason it makes no sense is because a mere two words (that and your) were exchanged.

Go ahead, read it again if you’d like—you will see that it only takes those two words to make all the difference. In the word swap test, you will need to identify the words that should be swapped so that the sentence makes sense. Do you think you have what it takes?

Word Meanings Test

The Word Meaning Test assesses your knowledge on, you guessed it, the meaning of words: it aims to evaluate your understanding of synonyms, antonyms, homophones, and word contexts. Although you may not have thought about any of these things since your school days, a good knowledge of word meanings is still essential to good writing and communication. This test will help you identify areas in language that you can improve so that, soon, even your autocorrect will be impressed by your word mastery. Are you ready to reveal how much you know about the meaning of words? Well then, let’s take the test!
