Increase your vocabulary & donate rice at the same time!

This is a really cool site and it is legit. Basically for every vocabulary word you get right, the companies that sponsor FreeRice will donate 10 grains of rice. So far they have donated over a billion grains of rice.

I’ll update on the highest level I get up to. Post your highest level that you attain!

Update: I can’t get past 23 without cheating. In other words, my vocab is horrible. Hopefully with this site, I’ll improve. According to them after a few days of using the site, you’ll start using words you never used before.

Update 2: I got up to 28. This site is astonishing. I’m learning new words. It’s such an exhilarating and reviving method of increasing one’s intellectual capacity of words.

Update 3: I got up to 35. It’s really addictive

28 levels? Wow!

I got to 15 :S
but the bright side is – I donated 1100 grains of rice. Alhamdulillah

I peaked at level 40 and then settled around level 34-36. Then again I’m a native English speaker. All in all that’s a wonderful web site.

Salams!

Mad fun

I just realised- it’s grains, not grams!
A quick google search revealed there are 50,000 grains in 1kg of rice.
So… if H donated 1100 grains, that’s just 0.022kg
I think I’m going to set a personal goal of 50,000/month [That's getting 5000 words right, which is extremely over-ambitious. So, perhaps not..]

Got to 44 briefly and then sank like the Titanic. Very cool site.

It’s kind of scary thinking that how much a person will have to eat for the day, depends on my (in)competency in English. Other then that, I’m psyched about the website!
Ayoub November 19th, 2007 at 7:52 am
HIghest was 38… went down to a 21!
AnonyMouse November 20th, 2007 at 11:52 pm

I got up to 50, but I think that’s the limit. Anyone know? I know I got more than 3 correct at that level, and I’m not moving up any higher.

I got up to level 54, but haven’t yet made it above. But despite english is not my first language I’ve had a couple of years of latin at school. That definitely helps.
