Test your vocabulary by matching the definition to the word

15/15 good quiz, thanks for answers

Adriana Zuliani, It does exist in English dictionaries. It comes from The Arabian Nights, in which one of the tales involves Prince Serendip, who always seemed to be in the right place at the right time.

for once the definitions were fairly spot-on.

15/15 - I had to go back to morose while I thought about it and decided that it was the best answer. Enjoyed this quiz with the answers

15 / 15. You have an outstanding vocabulary. Had to think a bit with some of the questions! Good quiz!

Altogether now, That was Very pleasant quiz,. Only five or six ads to play it ?

14. Missed morose. The "ill-tempered" part threw me off. I think of morose more as "sad" than "ill-tempered," but that could just be my own connotation.

Adriana Zuliani, I'm sorry that you *have* reservations about the definitions. However, serendipity does most definitely exist in English language dictionaries.

Quite an eye opener. Interesting.

15/15. @Adriana Google serendipity.

13/15. Not sure about morose Misread the other one.

13/15. Morose I missed!

13/15. Serendipity doesn’t exists in the English dictionary. Must be an American word. How can I possibly answer this question? I also got my reservations about mulish.

1415. Great quiz. Challenging re one’s’ vocabulary.

14/15. Challenging quiz.
