cockloft means:

L 39 for 460. I guess it's not bad for an ESL speaker.

Likewise. Many are easy simply because you can recognize the prefix and consequently pick out the answer based on that.

That's odd. I got to 41 as well, but for me it got easier as things went along. I had to guess on my first couple. Seemed random to me.

70 grains of rice at 41, quitting now before my level starts to represent my actual vocabulary. I love multiple guess tests

I did another 2100. It's all good.

If you want to get more rice donated quickly, just get tons of wrong answers until you get to level 1 and then answer away.
