Vocabulary Practice

These exercises are based on the Academic Word List, a computer-generated list of the most common words found in academic texts which are not amongst the 2,000 most common words in general English. The list is divided into ten sublists, with the most common words in Sublist 1 and the least common in Sublit 10.

Interactive multiple-choice tests (so far only Sublists 6 - 8 are available)
