Bob, just out of my never ending curiosity, I've taken the test that you indicated. I got my result at 21,400 words, which puts me just above the bottom level of native English speakers (said to be between 20,000 and 35,000 words). This is extremely fascinating. I've bookmarked this page as I am

Those are very impressive numbers for non-native speakers. There is what I believe to be a more accurate test, relying on honesty, here. It also discusses the methodology used, and feeds the results back into itself - it is part of an academic research project. http://testyourvocab.com I do
