If you’re looking to do some good for the world while mastering new vocabulary, look no further than freerice.com. The Web site claims that for each word you get correct, it will donate 20 grains of rice through the U.N. World Food Program to “help end hunger.”
There’s no signing up for anything, and as you choose each synonym correctly, your bowl fills with rice and then subsequent bowls of rice.
And as for the learning curve, “If you get [the word] right, you get a harder word. If wrong, you get an easier word,” the site reads.
You’ll be spouting new utterances like a polymath in no time.
