In what ways does your internet dialect differ from your IRL dialect?
In what ways does your internet dialect differ from your IRL dialect?
It just occurred to me that my internet dialect in my IRL dialect are slightly different in a few ways. Curious to hear others dialectal differences and thoughts on the subject.
You're viewing part of a thread.
I found and just took this one. It had tough words but I don't know how accurate its vocab to age chart is.
I got a 22688. Top 5.5% equal to... Lol White collars... Then why am I a blue collar bitch?
21470, top 7.55% Guess that's satisfactory. But I'd still prefer to know my virtual age. And not the colour of my collar. 😉
Whew. Top 0.1%!
Now... Where do I put this skill to good use?
English teacher... Editor?
not the guy you asked, but also .01%. I read. a lot. and I pretty much always have. mostly science fiction and fantasy, but I pick up the occasional nonfiction.
books were always around the house when I was a kid, and we went to the library a lot. my grandma taught me to read before I started school, so that's about 40 years of exposure.
so nearly everything on that test, I've encountered in context and at least have a fuzzy idea what it could mean.
I find it funny that you're so literate in English but not so conscientious in math/stats matters. Are you top 0.1% or top 0.01% of English speakers? :P
(Only joking! This isn't intended to insult you at all)
Wow, what's your history? I got top 0.12% from being a pedantic kid studying SAT vocabulary since middle school (and from being a native English speaker who also learned Spanish and French to intermediate high school American standards).
Part of a Ba in Phil. I spent most of my life as a manual labourer and then fell into unix/linux sysadmin. But I read like it is oxygen.
23028 here, top 4.96%.
Got 29610 or top 0.2% apparently. I don't consider myself to be wide-read nor learned. Also, I mostly guessed my way on the tougher items.
Not a native English speaker at that. I just live in a country where a lot of the post-primary schooling is done in English.
