HOW MANY WORDS ARE IN YOUR VOCABULARY?

The average adult vocabulary has 60,000 words, but 98 percent of human conversation is made up of only 4,000 of them. That leaves 56,000 words we don’t really need. Humans use the extra words to display their intelligence to potential mates. Peacocks have feathers; we have words, like” ANTIDISESTABLISHMENTENTERIANISM  which is another way to say you’re opposed to the withdrawal of state support from an established church.
