It would be interesting to see a breakdown of the results by age. If I go by pop/rock musicians the creativity drops after a fairly short while. At 64 I'm a lot less creative than I was in my early 20s

I want to know where they source their probability of word connections.

The entire internet? Every book ever published? Their own interpretation? Some algorithm, based on .... ?

Like Hero said, sometimes it seems to exclude words with the same initial letters or even the same number of syllables.

It doesn't seem to be based on meaning or context clues, alone.

But how do they determine the correlations?

^ Very good points Isabella. I think it's a bold attempt at doing the impossible.

I'd just treat it like a game.
Which is to say I'd like to figure out how to achieve a high score. :nerdy:

I can't get past 92. :scratch:
I also cheated because I saw my retainer case, but shh, they don't need to know.


Pay attention to the patterns in your results, that's the main thing I've done to improve my scores.

Do you ever sit and laugh at the pairings that get low numbers?

I had constipation + illiteracy once. It was like 58% :P

Some of relationships it sees are just weird. Maybe both get mentioned alongside reading? :P

Go there, the boxes for words should be on the right-hand side of the screen.
