    3/4 Of people who use English in the world are not natives. Its not necessary to have advanced level of english because key is clear communication. When I started using English in practice I noticed that I was using too many strange words and I realized that I need to stop using them and simplify my way of speaking as much as I can because not everybody will understand fancy words I was using.

    Native English speaker here: I took the test as I was curious to see what you regarded as must-know criteria in order to be accurately classified in the aforementioned categories. The only one I didn't get right was the question which in my opinion had more to do with knowing proper body anatomy than it did with actual knowledge of English itself (I had no idea where the hell my own femur bones were located lol!). However, I thought that the other questions, such as sentence rearrangements, determining the proper word order, plurals questions and preposition choices were more of an accurate bellwether to successfully tell people what they need to know about their own distinct levels.
    P.S: I should add that many native speakers would get many of these wrong due to not knowing the proper rules behind things like contractions (your/you're), plurals such as "phenomena" or "criteria", spelling and even conjugating the more "obscure" irregular verbs out there. But great test overall, hope my feedback helps and doesn't come off as arrogant.

    • @BrianWilesLanguages
      @BrianWilesLanguages  5 дней назад

      Thanks very much for your feedback! And yes, I think most native speakers would get 1 or 2 of these wrong... I did my best to cover a variety of different topics and means of comprehension, but some of the information is a bit technical (like the question you mentioned).

      They are close- but ‘fear’ is an emotion, and ‘horror’ is a concept. You can have a fear of heights, but not a horror of heights. You can watch a horror film, but not a fear film.

    There are two grammatical errors in question 12 , the second being the use of a comma instead of a semicolon to separate two independent clauses. The comma should come after the conjunction, and.
    #20 Fear is normal and can be healthy. A phobia is not just fear, but an intense and irrational one.

    • @BrianWilesLanguages
      @BrianWilesLanguages  5 дней назад +1

      Re: Q12- While one could use either a semi-colon or a comma to separate the clauses (both are correct here)- placing a comma after the conjunction would be an error. An (Oxford) comma could come before the final ‘and’- but this is a stylistic choice that I’ve chosen not to make.

    • @BrianWilesLanguages
      @BrianWilesLanguages  5 дней назад +2

      And yes, ‘phobia’ does literally mean an intense fear- but I think ‘fear’ gets the point across.

    am i wrong for thinking this?

    • @BrianWilesLanguages

      This is grammatically correct, but it’s unnatural because it suggests that traffic (as opposed to the lack of traffic) is the reason “we would have arrived on time”.
