I interviewed Simon Winchester some years ago for the City Arts and Lectures series in San Francisco, just after the publication of his book The Professor and the Madman (British title The Surgeon of Crowthorne ). He's a personable and engaging story-teller, and of all the interviews I've done in that series, from Robert Pinsky to A. S. Byatt, his was the easiest and most entertaining (I said afterwards that it was like pitching batting practice to Barry Bonds).
Knoword is a game of quick thinking, smart decisions and great words. When you begin, you will be given one randomly generated dictionary definition along with the first letter of its corresponding word. You must fill in the rest of the word to experience a gain in points and an added time bonus. You will start off with one minute before the game ends, and every word is an opportunity to extend your time.

Rankings of countries & territories by English proficiency - EF EPI
L’Europe a le niveau d'anglais le plus élevé de toutes les régions. A part une exception, tous les pays de très haut niveau et de haut niveau s'y trouvent. Cependant, cette tendance ne s’applique pas à tous les pays européens : l'Espagne, l'Italie et la Turquie restent loin derrière leurs voisins. L'Asie a une grande diversité de compétences. Cela va d’un haut niveau de maitrise en Malaisie à un très bas niveau au Vietnam et en Indonésie.
