Sky-Rocket Your Vocabulary


It's time to start working seriously on your vocabulary development.

1) First of all, test your vocabulary skills with the BBC Word Master. Remember to select the difficult level and try to beat the clock with your word knowledge!

The good news: you can repeat the test as many times as you like
The better news: you get clues when you're stuck
The best news: you get the right pronunciation for free!
The bestest news: there are thousands of words to practise!

2) Sweeten your coffee break with the BBC Countdown Quizzes. Six easy questions on words, idioms, collocations, stress-patterns... and 58 quizzes to choose among. So many chances to beat the clock!

Good luck this time!

In the second part, you get nervous because of the little time you have!

I think it's very difficult, and I get nervous too!

Hi Maria, welcome to the vocabulary practice! Hi, Lali, nice to find you here again!
Yes, I know the second part can be difficult, but I chose this exercise on purpose: you have reading comprehension and vocabulary practice at the same time... Practice will make you better.

Hi! From my point of view both quizzes are tricky but they´re very useful, above all the second one, because we learn common traditional expressions while we play.

I'll continue doing them. Bye.
