    While you are at it, test your German vocabulary, too!
    I got 46000.

    Hardly an accomplishment. You guys make up words on the fly.

    Actually, no. We simply sometimes omit space characters were you'd use one.

      I guess you could check every word, they don't seem to verify. Maybe they have some non-words on the list and you get a penalty if you check them.

        True.

        Running words together to create new ones is so much more clear than separating them.

        The saying, "Lite is just one damn thing after another," is a gross understatement. The damn things overlap.

                  5.000, but I'm not sure I answered the qualifying questions correctly.

                          1. I know a few. Very few.
                          2. A lot of English words and scientific terms have German roots.
                          3. I guess pretty well.😄
