A note from the editor

"A wide vocabulary is not ornament — it is precision."

We grade definitions by meaning, not by phrasing. Get the concept right and we move on. Mistake the meaning entirely and the word stays in rotation.

The 30-second game alternates closest synonyms and sharpest antonyms. Get one right and the clock rewards you with five extra seconds — but the difficulty (and the number of decoys) climbs the longer you survive.
