[evaleyst]

I am not a native English speaker, so I learnt a lot: 6 words I heard before but was not familiar with. But even at 75 of age, I'm adamant about improving my English.

[missjoshemmett]

I'm born and raised in the USA and am 78 yo. I knew every word and the correct pronunciation, however I don't use them. The majority of average Americans don't speak this way. If I used them people either wouldn't know what I meant or they would think I was showing off or stuck up. I do run across these words when I am reading and I started reading at 3. It just makes my vocabulary larger. But people don't need to use these words to speak proper American English in the USA. Also, two Ts do not mean to drop them. This is a new thing that has proliferated in the USA since this century. It often annoys me. I would never say, " Cute Ki'ens or Here ki'y, ki'y, ki'y." I would say kittens and kitty. So, I see I will have to get over it and stop leTTing it bother me, but I will continue to use the TTs anyway.

[Polymathically]

Got all of them. When I was an elementary school kid in the 80s, I didn't have any friends, and my parents weren't around much. So I spent my free time reading. Novels, dictionaries, encyclopedias, anything I could find. I started reading Stephen King when I was 6, and had completed my high school's English curriculum before I'd even enrolled there. This video made me feel nostalgic for those days.

I am turning 61 in a few weeks. Native speaker. I knew those words.

When I was school, we were taught spelling, grammar etc., though my grammar isn’t where I would like it to be, but I am confident in my vocabulary and usage!

In addition, before computers, I used to look up words in my pocket dictionary while reading fiction/novels etc.
