Free rice for the poor

jonathon_hart

Just found this http://www.freerice.com/index.php . If you know what a word means then free rice will be donated to feed the poor - best yet it costs you nothing.

I'll warn you the words are difficult though - I had never heard of most of them

just found this on another site, had a go, managed to donate 1330 grains, with a vocab of 40 - not an easy game by any means!

just done this twice first time i used a dictionary and the words just got harder i got to 400 grains in about 15 mins then i read the faq and realised that you dont get deducted if you get a wrong answ so just wnet for it and got 1000 in 5 mins ranging from level 9-20 every little helps my advice is just go with what you think

I averaged around 45 - but did anyone else find that the questions kept getting repeated? also, ones like 'what does aubergine mean' weren't too hard for us brits! great site though, read about it in the papers over the weekend so i wonder what the running totals are going to be tomorrow as a result of all the extra players?!
