  You scored 12 out of a possible 14.
  
  That's surprising, actually, as I was expecting 8 or 9.

  That's the one I got wrong. I didn't know the answer, but I do now.

  You scored 14 out of a possible 14
  
  On the whole it seemed fairly straightforward - I wasn't certain about my answer to the final question, but it turned out to be correct..

  Eleven out of fourteen...which makes me the winner, because I didn't use numbers in a sentence.

  13 - got "team" wrong.
  
  I wasn't sure about that one.
  
  I always knew I was too good to be a teacher though.

  Missed the collective interpretation of "pride" as I was thinking about it in the wrong way.

  Nine, but I didn't understand half of the questions. I only went to a "Comp" and got a grade C 'O' Level English. However, my Y5 son is doing homophones at the moment!

  13 out of 14. I got the 'pride' one wrong cause I wasn't really thinking about 'pride of lions' so only considered it abstract.

  11. I no interest at all in the terms that have been invented to describe English grammar. Gerund, active voice and prepositional are only of use if you are studying the language.
