The Commonly Confused Words Test

I was browsing through the net on a quiet and boring Sunday night (like all other Sunday nights) after the Wimbledon final, when I came across :

THE COMMONLY CONFUSED WORDS TEST.

Wow.

It's not just any test; it's a WORDS test.

It's not just any words test; it's a COMMONLY CONFUSED WORDS test.

And it's not just any commonly confused words test; it's THE COMMONLY CONFUSED WORDS test.

I scored as follows :-

English Genius
You scored 100% Beginner, 100% Intermediate, 100% Advanced, and 86% Expert!
You did so extremely well, even I can't find a word to describe your excellence! You have the uncommon intelligence necessary to understand things that most people don't. You have an extensive vocabulary, and you're not afraid to use it properly! Way to go!

Thank you so much for taking my test. I hope you enjoyed it!

Don't mean to be a smart-ass, but the author does seem to have made a COMMONLY CONFUSED Kata Penguat error with the phrase "You did so extremely well...". Not sure if it was done intentionally in good humour (bad, I mean), or by accident.

Or if it was just a COMMONLY CONFUSED WORDS error.

Do point it out to me if I'm mistaken.

And prepare to suffer the consequences.

Hi Messrs! Well, in a way, a plate of chowkueyteow represents my life - chaotic and mixed up, with a little green here and there.

Of course, I taste better.

Hmmm, that doesn't sound right, for some reason...

Thanks for commenting anyway!

Hi Adeline-confused gurl! Hmmm, I thought it was pretty straightforward, with the exception of my pointless rants...well, I'm known to confuse people with whatever I say anyway, so don't worry, your being confused is normal...could be one of the reasons why I ended up doing the CONFUSED WORDS TEST.

Thanks for confusing yourself on my blog!
