vocabulary test
Lexical knowledge check
A vocabulary test measures knowledge of words—their meanings, spellings, or usage.
Such tests appear in language classes, standardized exams, and job screenings.
They may ask for definitions, synonyms, or correct usage in context: The GRE vocabulary test includes some obscure words.
Informally, any situation that challenges word knowledge: Reading Faulkner is a vocabulary test.
