Free rice
For all of you ambitious souls, check how good your English is and donate some rice at the same time: http://www.freerice.com/index.php
I dont know if it actually donates any rice -if so, even better but you sure can check if you know some not-so-basic English vocab
I managed to donate 200 rice grains so far

kiwigirl, or more like 'shav it back up your ass' since the 're' prefix
See, I dont know most of these words its more like practicing getting to their stems and trying to figure out what they could possibly mean

my first few words were at level 15, ten every time that got a word wrong it dropped my down to 11 or 10... and every time I managed to "climbe up' again it gave me hard word that dropped me down again... dropping was quick, not even by one level but 3-4 at the time... while when climbing up I was getting 3-5 words before it "rised me" a level... strange, as it's totally different to what they say the rules are...

I donated another "kilo" of rice today, watching the levels carefully. I start from nothing - just a line. after first or second word 15 appears as a level, and then every wrong answer takes me one leve down. but "climbing up" is strange. as first and often neither second good one doesn't give me anything (levelwise) only then I start "going up' again, but it's not a level with each guessed word, its a level every two, three good ones... but of course one wrong one can distroy it all, brings me back a level and "keeps me" there for a few good answers... no iea howit works...

sorry, but some are stupid :
snobby = elitist
... no comments, or is it so often and obvious that can be treated as a rule ?
