The Commonly Confused Words Test

Complete Answer Key available. URL at end of test. Good communication is not necessarily about using an expansive vocabulary. It is about properly using the words and punctuation you already know.

The results of this test will reflect your level of appropriate word usage, with a little bonus test on commonly confused punctuation in one question. Try not to cheat even though you know there's an answer key! ;-) Above all else, have fun!!!

FYI: I have been receiving emails from people stating that my test is biased towards "British English" spelling, and others have said I am biased towards "American English" spelling. On the contrary, some of the questions have multiple correct answers, so don't fret if you think there are some "American" answers and some "British" answers. This was done so that it doesn't matter where you live, you will still receive the same score. :-)
